Week 9, I’m ready for you!

[Pancakes86]

I started C25K back in January, had two breaks thanks to a chest infection and a bad back. Now, finally, I have reached week 9!

I’ve already completed six park runs now (although slowly), so I hope I’ve got it in the bag! It’s just exciting to actually complete something I never thought I would.

I’m sure like many of you, I’ve found this whole experience life changing. I’ve lost 3kg and I feel so much better both mentally and physically. Anyone who’s just starting out on this journey, I can’t recommend it enough. Bite the bullet, and do it!

I don’t post on here too often, but whenever I do, you have all been so helpful and supportive, so thank you!

Here’s to graduating!

Well done Pancakes86! On your parkruns and your weight loss. I haven’t weighed myself lately (as I know this is not so much about weight loss) but I actually had to return a pair of running leggings yesterday as they were too big!!!

Weight loss was very happy accident with this - and it seems to be staying off despite not being the strictest with my diet. Here's to returning clothes though, well done!

Fingers crossed!

I agree with everything you say. I started 30 December, have also had one or two setbacks, and have also lost weight. Have now just completed W8R1(which was easier than I expected) and excited that there are now only a few runs to graduation!

Good luck with the week9 run-up!
