I’ve done it! Week 5 run 3 = 20mins non stop! Ive never in my 51 years ever run for that amount of time...ever! Mind you I have to say that I really didn’t enjoy it too much and in the first ten mins there were at least 3 times where I thought I may have had to pack it in but i didn’t. It wasn’t pretty but I’m super pleased. Thanks to all who gave me loads of useful advice πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ˜˜

Superb stuff, keep it going! Graduated on Thursday, did my first Parkrun this morning and yet 10 weeks ago could barely do a minute.....C25K is a miracle so let it work it’s magic πŸ‘
