I honestly never thought I’d be writing this post as 9 weeks ago I could barely run for 30 seconds (and still ended up red, hot and breathless) but today I’ve done a respectable 5k in 33 minutes. I always used to deeply envy all those fit sport people who jogged past me and never thought I could be one of them. I’ve had more failed attempts at running over the last 30 years than I care to remember.
This programme is incredible and so is all the support I’ve had on this forum. Thank you so much everyone! It’s been a tough but rewarding journey with highs and lows but I’ve persevered. I’ve totally earned my first ever running medal!!!

That's fantastic, well done! I graduated about a month ago and still can't do 5k in 33 minutes, that's an amazing time too! I totally agree with you about the incredible programme and support, I'm currently on ju-ju- 's fantastic '10 is the magic number' programme and am loving that too! 🏃🏃
Congrats, well done 👍🏼! Loving the medal too. I’m gutted because should have graduated with you but running a week behind due to flu 🤧. Next week it’s me, I hope 🤷♀️
