Well done to you and before you know it you will be running 5k the program really does work I didn’t think I could do it but I have and now I do parkrun on a Saturday which is a 5k run and in July 14th I’m running race for life so if I can do all this you’re going to do it as you have ran 20mins so you will smash it 😉👍
