Wow can't believe I completed that. I'm just so chuffed 😁 especially as it's roasty toasty out there ☀️☀️. Nearly gave up on the final 3mins but pushed through 😊😊

Well done to you for that just trust this program it really does work I couldn’t run 60sec now I’ve completed C25K I can run a full 5k and now I do parkrun and in July 14th I’m running race for life so if I can do all that you guys can so enjoy the journey and if it gets hard slow down and hydrate well before you run I have 3 pints of water before and I have a water bottle as I run and hydrate after and also stretch before and after it all helps 😉

Thanks for the tips. I do keep forgetting to stretch but I’ll get the hang of it. That’s great you have done so amazingly well. My target is a park run so here’s hoping
