Well just thought I would pop in and say hey. I haven’t been in for ages. If anyone has any doubts about c25k don’t. It really works. My journey stated in January (I think 🤔) when I stated this I was about 17stone and had all the doubt about being unfit to fat and unable to do this. As every week passed I was surprised that I was able to do it (run). I got ahead of the program a little and was running for longer then I should of in actuall fact I think I did 7 30 minute runs. I’ve carried on with the running and still do it now. I’m not running every other day maybe just once a week. But I’ve carried on with being healthy. This time last year I weighed about 20st I’m now 13st13 any way hope this helps any people that has a bit of doubt that with a little will power you can do this.
