When do you know you are a runner?

For me:

I know I am because I’m missing going for a run on my off days!

(Really didn’t think I’d say/feel that before this C25k programme)

Yep... that’s a big sign. Welcome to the addiction, rest days suck (though they remain important)

When you keep googling running shoes, even though you've just bought a pair. 😁

I miss running on my off days too but force myself to rest. I did week 8 three days on the trot but had to then rest for 4 days because my knees ached and I had over done it. However, perseverance is key and I hope to graduate tomorrow!
