Another beautiful morning on Dover seafront and to make it even better I did my final week 9 run.....and that's it !! I am officially a graduate and a runner!!!

Amazed with myself. I would never have thought this was possible having done no serious exercise or activity for 25+ years but this programme is fantastic and it works. A big thank you to C25K for getting me through, and to people on the site for their comments advice and inspirational stories. I registered for Park run last night so that will motivate me to carry on and who knows where I will end up.

Off to Budapest on Friday to visit my son......may even take the running shoes!!

Happy running everybody

Well done! Health is literally the gift that keeps on giving. Keep up with the regular running and the benefits will keep you going for years to come.
