Well, to all those wondering about this programme or struggling part way through, there is good news. IT CAN BE DONE! I started on 1 May with the target of completing it by mid July and my 70th birthday. Today I have completed, 3 weeks later than planned, due to a surgical intervention which prevented me running for 3 weeks, at 70 plus a week! If I can do it so can you. I’ve never run in my life, I haven’t achieved 5k yet (only 3k so far) but that will be my next target. So best foot forwards all of those with doubts, it is achievable.😀 I shall now claim my ‘graduation certificate’. 💪
