I just completed W5 R3 and ran for 20 mins!! Came home with the biggest smile on my face. So so happy!!

The first 5 mins my legs were hurting and it was the hardest, but after that my legs felt like they had warmed up and got into the swing of it. Honestly the rest of the time flew by I couldn’t believe it when I only had 5 mins left.

I’m so happy and this programme is so amazing. I didn’t realise I even had it in me to do this run and never would have thought it when I started.

Anyone who is worried about week 5 run 3, please please don’t be. It’s honestly a fab run and you WILL be able to do it! ❀️

Bring on W6 on Thursday!

Well done! I think this run was the one I got most satisfaction from as I never thought I could do that. The great thing is you’ve achieved the biggest jump on the programme and the rest will happen. You’re a runner now!

Very well done to you. What a great run you had. You deserve to have that β€˜buzz’ as it’s a super achievement. That run is such a memorable point of the programme. Happy running days.

Congratulations on completing run 3 of week 5, 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.

I love seeing this, puts a big smile on my face! Well done Bex!... πŸŽ‰πŸŽˆπŸŽ‡
