Hello folks- I have finally completed the C25k and cannot tell you how pleased I am with myself!

I first attempted it 5- yes 5 years ago and this is the 4th attempt. This time I started last September and the difference was I joined the group and have been reading and been encouraged by others stories.

I have repeated I don’t know how many runs!

It was only when I got past week 6 that iI have been able to keep pretty much on track.

So anybody out there letting it drift don’t worry and feel bad- just focus on what you have achieved.

I never thought I’d do this- and I have- next challenge is keeping it up!

Congratulations! You got there in the end, you knew you would sooner or later - how long it takes is irrelevant, you got there and that's what counts. Waiting for so long makes it more of a precious time. A well deserved, huge well done!
