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

9 weeks ago I only just got to the end of the first run and spent the following hour recovering in the bath.

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

Thank you so much to all the people who post instructive and encouraging messages on this forum. I start every day by reading them and they have been an enormous help.

Well done, I hope that will be me on 11th May. I’ll be on holiday but I’m taking my gear and I’ve already mapped my run.

Hi Iannoda Truffe. I think I have received the starter post rather than the what next advice.

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.
