Absolutely delighted to say that I have made it from couch to 5k!

Today I found and extra 3mins 54secs and completed 5k. Nothing short of a miracle. If I can do it, anybody can

Thanks yeti, I’m doing my best, just hope I don’t startle the dogwalkers there who won’t be used to seeing my Lycra clad bum go past them early in the morning!
That's briliant - well done! I am planning on doing the last week 9 run tomorrow so will hopefully be joining you as a graduate! This really is a great forum & like you I always read it to hear about everyone's successes - it's really kept me going & motivated. Reading your post today has spurred me on to complete the plan tomorrow so a big thank you for sharing your achievement.
