Hi folks. I’m only on week one. Is it helpful to book a 5k this early? I see one in London in October I’d be interested in which is past the hopefully nine weeks. But should I wait til I’m further in the programme to consider it?

Do it! I booked myself a place on the Amsterdam 8k in October (and I did it two weeks into C25K) so I’m sure you have time!

Go for it!
I started C25K because I signed up for a 5k charity run! I’m only on week 2 and am doing my first ‘fun run’ on Sunday! Go for It!
Yep, no problem. Go for it.
