This morning I completed the C25K programme - I am so proud of myself (and I’ve even lost 16lbs en route!) As a 55 year old woman who was exercise adverse if I can do it - so can you!

Congratulations!🎉 I finished last night, 52, also an aversion to exercise! No weight loss though - not a sausage. Did you run slow and steady? My health app said only 1 min of "fat burning" 28 min "intense". Am I going too fast?🤔

I would definitely say that I am slow and steady! In addition though since starting the programme I have also been much more careful with what I’ve been eating so it’s really a combination of the two.
