Started (again)...

[V-5k]

Hi all, this is just a quick hello to force me to interact more - I’ve been a forum lurker for a few years now & always enjoy reading everyone’s progress & encouragement.

I’ve started (& then stopped) c25k more times than I can remember, never really getting very far or finding the motivation to stick with it, but this time I’m determined to become one of those smug runner types.

So today I’ve begun the journey & as an extra motivation signed up for Race for Life in July. I’ve done it a few times but as a combination of running, walking & almost crawling, but my goal this year is to run the whole damn thing!!

I’m hoping that if I come out of my shell & post a bit then maybe I’ll be more motivated to stick with it, so let’s see how that goes...

Yay another one doing the Race for Life! I'm doing mine in May and like you I hope to be able to jog the whole way this time. Forget about all the other times you've started Couch to 5K. That is history. Now is now. Just do it, no excuses!
