So excited to have finally graduated couch to 5k - it's been hard but enjoyable too!! I couldn't see myself ever getting to running 30 minutes in one go when I first started out but gradually over 3 months or so I've finally got there. Not quite at 5k yet but not far off. It was a mixture of outside running and treadmill depending on the weather. So a message to anyone starting out keep at it and persevere - you will get there!

Not sure what to do next to keep the momentum going - think I'll try parkruns and maybe another run in the middle of the week to keep it going.
