Morning everyone ๐Ÿ˜Š Graduated on the 27th March and have been running 5k every two days since then ๐Ÿค” it makes me smile every day that at the start of C25K, I couldnโ€™t run for a minute ๐Ÿ˜Š now Iโ€™m booking my first park run and looking at bridge to 10k. If youโ€™re starting out - good luck - keep with it - it really is so worth it! ๐Ÿ˜Š Anyone who wanted an update from โ€œget the popcorn outโ€ ..........Alice (with big smile on her face) has told me my belly is a lot smaller ๐Ÿค“ Now 15.9 stone down from 17.12stone (99k from 112kg)

Happy running everyone ๐Ÿค“

Jason

Same to you ๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿ‘

Really, well done! You can go forward with confidence that you can keep running and getting healthier, combining running with eating healthily and getting slimmer, fitter and stronger as a result ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿƒโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ‘

Running is fun too of course and gets you where you want to go You can literally run errands now ๐Ÿ™‚

Is it worth it - Absolutely. I too am a recent graduate and religiously run 3 days a week - look I am using the term run now. I have to say this programe has been a godsend and to be honest PArk Runs are amazing. Everyone is so friendly, its a great atmosphere and boy it feels good to run with like minded individuals and also have company whilst running

So I to agree with Jason if you want to give it a go just do it, best thing I have done in years. I am now up to 8K and cant wait to crack the 10
