Went out tonight and finished the program. Even managed 5k in just about 30min I absolutely love this program. Thank you everyone on here for your amazing support. Just need to figure how to move on with this journey. I am definitely going to carry on doing 3x 30 mins a week till I figure it out.

Many congratulations and what a run to finish on! Celebrate well. Your plan of 3x30 mins for a bit is perfect, we recommend consolidation every few months of running and it’s the perfect time to do some. Enjoy all your future running adventures

Well done Ellers and a great time to finish on but hope you will set yourself small and manageable targets. Have you thought of Parkrun ?

Hi thank you I have thought about park run but I am not the most confident person so it worries me somewhat. But I have signed up just not been yet.

Well done Ellers. I fully understand that your lack of confidence about parkrun - might I suggest that you first volunteer to help at it, so you can see what goes on and get to know a few folk? No need to let on that you’re actually a runner too....

Park run is great and very friendly. I have been to 5 different ones and all are encouraging. (I do what ever session I am on and brisk walk the rest) Well done
