Done ✅ I can’t express how much I’m enjoying myself, tonight I tested the talking and running by running with my sister and it was heaven ( even in the sleet! ) I’ve done two nights back to back but I’ve now got 3 days before the big 20 minute run 👏🏼 even feeling positive about that!

Big shout out to all the support from yourselves, although strangers really, I never thought I’d get this far ( and enjoy it! ) so thank you 😘

Congratulations Lilgwood on getting to week 5 run 2 of C25K, you have nothing to worry about regarding run 3, that's the run that makes you feel like a runner which you are.

Sharing your excitement! Well done on tonight’s performance ....... it is a good forum eh? I feel I’d be letting loads of folk down if I didn’t get out there and do W5R2 tomorrow - but I know you’ll all be pushing me along!

Great running... and well done chatting... hello sister, well done to you too! Back to back days is a bad idea... let’s get you through this and up to 6 months and then maybe drop the odd rest day, we don’t want you injured... good that you now have 3 days to recover. You’re gonna love that 20... keep the pace just like you did today and you’ll have no issues... and a lot of pride t the end.
