W4R1 complete - never thought I would be able to run for 5 minutes

[KirstyMV]

Hey! Glad to find some like minded people also doing the 5k. I have dabbled with running so many times over the years and always gave up or ended up injured. I am feeling really pleased with myself at running for 5 minutes. Despite that success I can’t figure out how to put a profile pic on this 😂 well I can but it’s only a tiny bit of my Santa hat.

Well done. I had no doubt I could run for 5 minutes. That was until I had to run for 1 minute 😆. I was so embarrassed at how unfit and unhealthy I was.

Keep posting and let us know how you get on.

Re: the profile picture, all you need is time, effort and a good pinch of luck!

Welcome aboard. If you read the pinned post about c25k, it might help avoid your injury situation again.

Look forward to reading your journey 👍

Thanks for the encouragement folks. About to tackle Wk4 R2! Isn’t it funny how before a run it feels like a gigantic task. I know it will feel great after though.
