After starting couch 25k in April yesterday I completed the great south run. Feeling so proud of myself! The first 6 miles were great in just over an hour. I found the last 4 miles a struggle but I kept going crossing the finish line in just over 2 hours.

It was an amazing run and great atmosphere... I'm a little sore today but cant wait to get out running again in a few days.
