I RAN for 20 minutes 🤩🤩

This afternoon I completed week 5 !! 5 weeks ago I struggled to run 90 seconds 😱

The first 5 minutes I was struggling a little but slowed my pace & cleared my thoughts, I got into my own zone & plodded happily along . I’m smug & proud , I hope you’re all doing well too .

Congratulations Darcyduck, you deserve to be smug and proud, well done on completing week 5 run 3, that is a milestone run with C25K.

Onwards and upwards to week 6 run 1 but be careful about that run as it catches out some people with the interval walks🚶 and runs 🏃

Great run... good control of pace.... just over half way in the plan... two thirds of the way to 30 minutes. Enjoy week 6

Fantastic achievement. I reckon once you've done this run, you know you can complete the programme and enjoy a lifetime of running. :)

Well done! I knew you could do. Those first 5 are weird, like starting an old car ;-) 🥳🍾
