I’ve done it!!

And there you go, just like that, I’ve gone from never running to running for 30 minutes non-stop! It’s been a tough journey with a few injuries and more self doubt than I ever thought possible, but here I am, a C25K graduate! I even upped my pace on my last run to see how far I could get, it turns out quite far, getting 5.54k (I do have long legs though!)

To anyone setting out on the journey, or having doubts as they go along the journey, stick at it. By far the hardest thing for me was to motivate myself to get out of the front door. The doubt and fear was incredible, but once I was out, and found my rhythm, I loved every second of the experience.

What an amazing programme, I’ll be recommending it to anyone I know!

Keep running!

Well done Philly, strange to look back at January when we started this journey and what we have become. World was a lot simpler back then imho, go get your graduation badge!

Thanks, and you couldn’t be more right! I had a fear they would ban outdoor exercise before I graduated - so I really wanted to get it done!
