WK9R3 done!!!!!!!!!!

Completed WK9R3 this morning and with it C25k!!!!!!

When I decided to try running I thought that I would be able to run 1 or 2 miles and within a month or two I would manage 5 miles. What an old fool I was, on my first try I managed about 100yds. Then I found C25k and can now run for 30min!!!!! If you stick with it, the program really does work. It hasn't given me a buzz for running, I find it hard (although I did enjoy today's run) but I did get a buzz from completing each run and each week of the program. C25k is a stepping stone along the path I have set myself so after a few consolidation weeks I will move on to B210k

Congratulations - Brilliant achievement - I’m doing my final run in the morning - I feel the same as you - I don’t enjoy running , but I’m amazed that I’ve been able to run for half an hour- thanks to C25k-albeit very slowly due to a dodgy knee, which threatens to give way every run, but it hasn’t stopped me yet! Roll on tomorrow morning!
