Wow oh wow oh wow!!!! That was amazing!!! Strange city as I am away with work but into my running gear I got, on went my aftershokz (btw these are fantastic and worth every penny) and out i went.

The sun is beaming but that didn't deter me I just went for a run with Laura guiding me through 25 minutes of running!!! The girl who got out of breath going upstairs only 6 weeks ago just ran for 25 mins straight and I loved it, in fact I loved it so much I stopped worrying about how long I had left to run and just enjoyed the fact I was running. Before I knew it Laura was there to give me praise and tell me I had 1 minute left and I even had enough fuel in the tank to give a little extra effort for the last minute although it was only a little extra effort!!!

Feeling hot, sweaty but overjoyed with what I have achieved and amazed that the C25K really does work!

Amazing! Congratulations on getting to this point and running in different places. X

Well done to you 😊. I gave it a tiny bit extra too during the last 60 seconds.
