Well done. congratulationsπŸ₯‚πŸ˜ƒπŸ‘

Marathon training! Crikey nothing like jumping in with both feet

Have fun. Go steady! Don’t over-train will you. As your running legs are newly-formed πŸ™‚

Well done to you! Good luck with the next phase - remember to build it up gradually and there's no shame in an occasional walk break if Jeff Galloway says it's ok! You must be feeling great now...

Best of luck

While training think more about what you eat, protein will be needed for repair

I would love to marathon train but just don’t have the hours required

Thanks everyone im excited! The training plan is actually a much more gradual increase than the C25K, training over 12months so im positive i can do this 😊, i cant wait to get that first step done tomorrow with a 20min slow run xx
