Feeling emotional. Managed to keep going for the full 20 minutes. Five weeks ago I was out of breath climbing the stairs. Can't believe I did it!

pmorley I completed the c25K about five years ago and I can still remember the feeling of completing the 20 minute run in week 5 - it was the day I knew I could run! Well done :)

Oh fantastic- I'm cheering for you! That run is a turning point -especially psychologically.

Happy W6, I really enjoyed it after those 20 mins. 😁

Well done! 🎉🎉 be proud of yourself!! I know how my fitness has improved when I had to climb 7 floors to the car last night after a show and I managed it and could still breathe when I got to the top...4 months ago I would have been a right state! 😂
