Hello everyone!

Long time no post; but I had to share this with you all... exactly 1 year after starting C25K and struggling to even run for 1 minute - not an exaggeration I nearly fainted on my first attempt this time last year - I’ve just finished my first ever 10k in 25 degree heat (not so great).

I’m absolutely over the moon - here’s a very sweaty and red photo of me with my medal.

To everyone who’s just starting their C25K journey - if i can do it - you all can.

Absolutely brilliant ! You must be so pleased with yourself ! And deservedly so. You are an inspiration, I hope to get to 10k at some point in this century.

Very well done indeed
