I completed the C25k app last week and ran my actual first 5k today. Had a cold for a while so took it steady and had no intention of running so far but didn’t want to stop once I was in the flow! So how long did your first ever 5k take you? I don’t mean race but the first time you ever ran that distance? Mine took 41 minutes and honestly I could have gone faster or longer so aiming to build on that!

Wow you’re now a Graduate! Love the squiggle of your run! I am still in my training phase but ran 5k last Saturday with two 2 min walks to catch my breath and think I was 42 mins. Unlike you I had nothing left in the tank so I’m hoping the next 2 weeks builds my stamina.
Huge congrats on your achievement and perhaps on to Parkruns for you now?
Good Luck
