Hello folks, im new here, new to running and have just completed 4th week of couch to 5k and feeling fantastic. I'm just after fitness and staying for 'forever.' 😁Hoping to engage, socialise and run with some of you guys soon. I'm based in Stoneclough. Happy running...

👋 hallo there

Week four! Well done. Keep going steady and you’ll be fine

Folks here are very supportive and do meet up and run together. There are lots of races and parkruns for meet-up opportunities 😃👍🏃‍♂️

Nice one, I'm really looking forward to building up my fitness and hopefully link up with some of you.

Cheers

Just go nice and steady and you’ll build up fitness. Eat and drink healthily too, walk lots and you’ll be making inroads into enjoying better health

I too have just completed week 4 and " looking forward???" To week 5. Keep up the good work. I've not been brave enough to do a parkrun yet but in a couple of weeks maybe?? Or after graduating ....

I'm in Devon so probably won't bump into you ( unless we both do the London Marathon one day) but I'll keep an eye on your progress in here.

Good luck and I'll be running with you in spirit for week 5

Hello! Well done for getting to Week 4 and loving it :) It only gets better!

As Wobble says, people do meet up - she and I have run together and are doing so tomorrow with another C25K-er I haven't met before. I have made so many friends on this forum and have met up with probably around 40 - 50 C25K- rs in person, at events or just for coffee and cake while trying on running shoes :D It's a great place, this forum :)

Look forward to that

Hi there, congratulations on getting this far. It's a lovely feeling isn't it.

I'm no where near you unfortunately but it's always nice to follow one another's progress and encourage each other.

Wishing you all the best.
