My first 5K

I ran my first 5K this morning. It is a couple of weeks since I graduated in C25K. I have added a couple of minutes in each run. My speed has increased without me thinking about it. I am very grateful for this app which has got me so far in such a short time.

Well done on that amazing milestone! It’s great to get that one under your belt. 👏👏

I agree, without this programme I’d still be a running hater. I’ve surprised myself, as we all have, how far I’ve come, and the fact I’m aiming for 10k eventually is mind blowing! Brilliant C25K. Everyone should have a go if they’re able to! ❤️

Well done!! It’s such a great feeling to hit that milestone, especially if like me, you struggled even running for 60 seconds a few months ago. I frequently tell people the app changed my life and that really feels like no exaggeration!! Happy running 😀
