Graduate!

I finished the couch to 5k program yesterday! It was not my best run. It was raining, I got a stitch in my side about 19 minutes in and my body didn’t want to cooperate, but I’m so glad I didn’t stop. Up to 2 miles now, so still some work to do before my 5k in two weeks.

Never did I imagine I’d be running like this. What a great program.
