To those starting out on W1r1, your probably thinking Park runs, will that happen. Well it has for me. i’m 63 3/4, and over weight, granny. Today, week 12, I did it. Listening to all these fab people on here, with their great advice and council. I have just completed my 4th Park Run. One of the marshals said,” you’re up for a Pb today” , well I was and I did. So i’ve Knocked off 5 mins off my 1st race time. Yea. Under 40 mins, for a 5 k. So for anyone reading this, I hope you feel as great as I do today.

Great post rogie, it seems impossible at the start of c25k, but it really does work. That's a huge improved time, you deserve to feel that good 😊
