Hey gang!

This is just a short note to wish you, my second family!, a happy Christmas and a fantastic new year.

2017 has been a momentous year for me with the C25K journey beginning in June culminating in my Runniversary of August 11th! Prior to C25K I had never run for fitness or fun. Now, 2 days after my 48th birthday I have broken the 29 minute 5K barrier and the 1 hour 10 minute 10K barrier. My fitness levels are higher and my weight is lower than at any point since my teens.

Thank you my friends, let's have a 2018 to equal 2017, I'm blown away by this programme and am forever indebted to it
