I've said it many times and I'll keep saying it again. C25K isn't just a thing to do it's a life change. Today I done my 1st duathlon. 2mile run 10mile cycle 2 mile run. Wasn't official race but the distance and all transitions and rules where followed. More in prep for 1at race next week. I done it in 1hr 18mins. I thought keep under 1hr 40 would be good.

All this is down to the C25K training app and this forum. The structure of the programme guides you through, you just have to have to patience and will. This forum is amazing for support. People you don't know pick you up when your down and lift you higher when your in the clouds.

To say I chuffed with today is an understatement. I August past there I couldn't walk the length of myself. Now look at what's happening. Amazing feeling too.

Thankyou. Where next? Not actually sure. I'm doing my first race since high school so I will wait and see if I like it. If I do there is another 2 races in the series. 1 a mnth. I'll try and work on times then. That will take me up till near my holiday, so after that miby try to up distance especially on bike. See where that goes.
