Ran for a full 20 minutes!

I’ve just completed week 5! I’ve been looking at this run for a while, it seemed like an impossibility at the start but, with lovely Michael J’s encouragement, I did it! I’m really starting to believe in myself. I’m afraid I’m turning into a Couch to 5K bore though, I’m sure all my friends and family think I’m being paid to sell it!

Michael is rather marvellous isn’t he 😁. I feel sorry for non-C25kers 😎
