Only gone and done it!

It took a little longer than the 9 weeks (13 in total) but I’m so chuffed that this morning I completed C25K! Had to break for a week due to illness plus redo a few runs that I didn’t quite finish. It has been a rollercoaster but made me realise that if you take things steady you can achieve anything.

I’ve never run in my life and always been overweight. The programme has been great to gradually build up to consistent ‘running’ or in my case slow jogging.

Next mission is to keep on going to run 5k in 30 mins...
