Week One done

Just finished week one, have showered, and now sipping a cup of tea. Feeling positive that I will continue onto week two later this week. I tried this a couple years ago but gave up after the second run. I think I'm in a more resolute frame of mind now. Also am doing a slower pace of jogging, rather than running. I'll put my ambition to run rather than jog to one side for now!

Good plan. 👍 There really is no need for speed on C25K - it’s all about finishing the run and slowly building stamina. Speed can be worked on later (fun!) Well done in completing week 1! 👏👏👏

Jog is good, very good. Anything that means you have fuel in the tank to look forward to the next run. Happy running

Well done for completing it. A little jog is all we need to feel better...especially if you jiggle and giggle whilst you do it...or possibly afterwards. 👍👣👀
