congratulations! I am on week 3 but it the same boat as you. Getting results already with the weight loss - so i am delighted with that but also amazed that i am out running in the first place!

Good luck with the rest of week 6 :-)

I was a novice back at the start of January. This programme has helped me get off the couch and start running.

I have graduated but am yet to run 5K. Iโ€™m not far off it. I have about 1.8Km to go but I am so determined to reach 5K.

The app really helped me and also there is a group in my area that are doing the challenge so it is nice to meet other people.

Slow and steady. Good luck.
