Fantastic ! Good for you.👏

Take care as the programme progresses. I also thought I was fit when I started out, swimming, long distance walking etc. I soon discovered there's is nothing quite like running. Take it slowly🐌, read up on technique and you'll be fine. Running is a wonderful stress buster in difficult times.

Good luck

Thank you. I am jogging very slowly around my local park.

Well done. Lots of people starting at the moment so you can have a little virtual running club. This is such a difficult situation but it does mean that many people have time on their hands to do other stuff :)

Jogging very early in the morning, so that I can do social distancing. Park Services very nicely Stencilled 2 metres symbols on the paths where I live.

Well done on your first run. There are so many people starting C25k at the moment that there will be a host of graduates in 9 or so weeks time. 😊
