This week’s mantra

As I’ve already warned the forum, I tend to make up daft poetry when I’m out. Here’s today’s:

It’s a long way to get to 5k,

It’s a long way I say,

It’s a long way to get to 5k

But I’ll get there one fine day,

Goodbye to the armchair,

I am on my way,

Cause I know I’m going to get to 5k,

So hip hip hooray !

Sorry. I’ll call the men in the white coats now 🤪

Next, how about a prose to the song,'Congratulations' from Cliff Richards dedicated to all who have graduated from C25K.
