Hi

Started couch to 5K at the end of March. I literally struggled to run for a minute. Yesterday I completed my first 10K. Not the fastest of times but I ran non stop for the whole distance. Still buzzing haha.

Thank you. Wasn't the fastest. That's my next aim, to try and speed up a bit.

Well, fast doesn’t change your life as much as endurance. You’ll enjoy chasing the speed though, I always did and I’m looking forward to it again. Actually I say always, 10x200m sprints, you can keep those days... but the others were fun 😂

Big congratulations, a fantastic achievement. I’m doing my first 10k race on Saturday and started C25k last April.

Brilliant!

I’m following in your footsteps - albeit a little slower and far behind. But you’ve given me hope.

Thanks and happy running.
