My nose runs faster than me...

[Gingernutter]

But I overtook it when Sanjeev said I only had 5 minutes left of my 30, that felt soo good!

Kept it simple today with a linear run along the canal with only the ducks and some sleeping barges for company. It's not a walk in the park but it's all very manageable with a few improvements on previous times and a personal record for my mile.

However, I may be running for 30 minutes now but I am only achieving 4k in that time (hark at me ONLY 4K 😂😂) so I doubt I'll be graduating on Monday at 5k.

However, that was not my raison d'etre, it was to get my ass into gear (literally and figuratively) with an activity I would actually enjoy without killing me in the process.

So far, I'm doing that and loving it ♥️🏃‍♀️ Thank you guys, have an awesome day x

Great Stuff! Sounds the business to me 💪😃👍. Running, having fun, getting fit and staying healthy Life doesn’t get any better.

No rush by the way. As you get fitter, stronger you will speed up. speed’s not the most important thing though is it 🤷‍♀️

Errr what is this " only" nothing only about 4K .. still 4K more than you were when you started 😊

Graduating is running 3 x 30 minutes in week 9 , a small percent manage the 5K in 30 ..

The important bit is as you said you are loving it , that is what counts 😊😊

Thanks slow_rob 😁 I have to keep pinching myself about what I am doing. It's unbelievable 😂😂

Well done an overtake! I remember my first one. Joyous until I saw the dejected expression on the little boys face so I "let" him pass me back.

Although it says couch to 5k it is actually couch to 30 minutes of continuous running but C25K sounds better.
