Take my house....

I can only assume that the cult of C25K will require some form of large payment (probably my house) for having managed to get me through W5R3 on the first time of trying.

Slower than a 2 legged sloth (downgraded from the 3 legged W4 sloth) I plodded round and then promptly burst into tears when Laura said I could stop running.

I am proud of me!

Ha Ha! I like the cult idea; we are all a bit like we just found religion :)

Fabulous job. Be proud.

That's the way to do it!

The only cost is to you is that you have to live with the nagging realisation that you have wasted such a lot of your life and that you should have done this years ago................ I am sure you will cope with that.

Be cautious with your next run, it catches many out.

Mmmm not to sure about this ....no time is wasted.....it is all about the journey to get where we want/need to be.

I am broadly in agreement with you, but in retrospect I wish I had discovered the joys of running at an earlier age.

Yeah I can see that ...... I really love running now thanks to the great C25K app and this amazing forum.

I'm with Tim - running has changed my life for the better (which sounds a bit exaggerated - but really isn't) - All those years trying to manage stresses and work life balance when a run after work sorts my head out - never mind the physical benefits.

I should think so too! I burst out laughing though - mind you it was probably hysteria 😁. Great feeling isn’t it 😃👍

Slow is absolutely the best way to tackle this wonderful programme. Doggedly determined 💪🙂 slow and steady is the mantra
