Soooo Happy

It will be a year on the 18th of Feb since I started C25K. Today I have just ran 5k in under 40mins for the first time. I know this isnโ€™t fast for a lot of folk but to me I felt like Usain Bolt ๐Ÿ˜‚. I really canโ€™t believe that this time last year I couldnโ€™t run for 1 minute and weighed over 22stone

For everyone starting this life changing programme have faith in yourself....you can do this!
