Just completed week 9 run one and for the first time ever (that i am certain of) i completed the full 5k in under 40 minutes.

When i started this i weighed more than 18 stone and i am now a stone and a half lighter.

I still cant believe i went from no exercise two months ago and i can run three miles, but if i can get there anyone can.

Well done to you for reaching week 9 and for the weight loss. That's brilliant! Don't forget you don't have to run 5K to get your badge, just 30 minutes three times.

Only two more to go πŸ€—

Nicely done - you are within fingertips of getting that graduation. Good luck for the next two outings

Great run TheTractorBoy... well done on reaching 5k! You only need to do 30min runs to complete the program, so could hold off until after graduating to do it again!

Two more runs 😊x
