I started the c25k back in Jan, fed up of being over weight and un happy, and found this app great I am now on week 8 after repeating a few weeks, and yesterday did my first 5k race! was brilliant, I think I am almost a runner! I lost focus the last couple of weeks and wondered why I was doing it now I done my first race am going to work hard to graduate! x x thanks for all the advice and tips on here it's really helped seeing what others are doing!

Congratulations, I’ve signed up for a 5K charity run in the summer. Many days I don’t believe in myself but people like you on here are such an inspiration. Well done
