I started C25K last year in October and struggled through injuries and bad weather but managed to graduate in January. Today I marked my 61st birthday with a 10K run. If anyone had said a year ago that I would be running regularly (and loving it!) and managing to complete 10K, I wouldn’t have believed it was possible. If I can do it, anyone can! Believe in yourself peeps!

You have inspired me to keep going . Im 64, running again after 25 years and struggling with week 4. ☹️I'm completing it but not feeling like I'm improving at all!! the last 5 min run nearly kills me. I'm not giving in though. This girl is no quitter!!
I used to run 10-11 mile fun runs but that doesn't sound so much fun now as it used to.
