Hi everyone
I’m 11 and my mum did C25k and I decided to do it as well because I didn’t really run a lot in Primary because I was very slow and I didn’t play games like it because I was always caught first and then I couldn’t catch anyone and it made me feel bad because people teased me.
I’m hoping to get better at running so I can feel better about myself.
Awww love this!
Welcome to the forum lovely!
👏👏👏👏
And well done to you for starting this!
How lucky are you to have such an inspirational Mumma 💕
Best of luck and look forward to reading your posts
Thanks 😊 - MiniNoodle
You sound like a great wee girl!! Don't let other people put you off. Sometimes children tease others because they don't feel very good about themselves. You are doing fantastically well to have started the Couch to 5K and we'll all be routing for you. 🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️
Thanks 😊 my mum says that too - MiniNoodle
Yay!! Go go go MiniNoodle! The great thing about C25K is that you're always doing better than your old self - not competing with anyone else. That's what I love. Enjoy your running!
Thank you 😊
Take it slowly. Your legs aren't (yet) as long as your mum's. Make her slow down for you. 😁
Thanks 😊- MiniNoodle
PS she’s quicker than me ☺️ I’m trying to get her to not sprint and exhaust herself! She’s definitely got the talking and running combo down - HappyNoodle
🤣🏃♀️🏃♀️
Hello MiniNoodle, well done you for starting C25K!
I know it can be difficult to ignore people who tease you at school - it happened to me - but you sound just great to me 
Go for it!!
Thank you 😊 I will - MiniNoodle
You can do it! Some people might be fast but I bet they can’t run non stop for 30 minutes which you’ll be able to do soon 😊
Yes! 😊 - MiniNoodle
Congratulations MiniNoodle! You will definitely improve as you follow the plan . Please don’t bother about fast or slow. Your pace is your own and nobody else’s. Be proud of it .
Not only will you feel better about yourself, you will be more confident , see everything in a different way, and you won’t even care about teasing people . Enjoy your running!
Thank you ☺️- MiniNoodle
Well done, MiniNoodle. It is fantastic that you are getting yourself fit and you should be so proud of yourself. Remember there will be up and down days so try not to look back on how games / running was at school and try to focus on now. Happy running, MiniNoodle. 👍👣🌞
Thank you 🏃🏻♀️ - MiniNoodle
This is a great post!! Mini noodle, all I’m going to say darling is you’re awesome 😎 👏🏻Never let people put you off, it’s hard I know but just be yourself!! It sounds like you have a great Mum to work together with on your journey.
Tell yourself you can do it and you really will 💕🤩 I’m so glad you’re doing it, well done you!! Keep us updated with yours & Mums progress x x
Thanks 😊 I will do it! - MiniNoodle
You certainly will 💪🏼🤩
Welcome to the club MiniNoodle!
Just think, if you keep at it like your mum did, you'll soon be running distances and times you never thought you could
When the world finally gets back to normal, ask your mum to take you along to Junior Parkrun - you'll find lots of like minded people of your own age, who all have one thing in common... the love of running!
Also, just remember: those kids didn't make fun of you because you couldn't catch, or because you weren't very good at games. They made fun of you simply because they're not very nice people. Be confident in who you are and turn your back on anyone who tries to take you down.
Thank you I would like to do a Parkrun 🏃🏻♀️ - MiniNoodle
PS thank you from HappyNoodle too!
Good luck, you can do it!
Thank you 😊🏃🏻♀️ - MiniNoodle
I always hated PE at school and was always picked last for teams. That’s why I avoided any attempts at running for 25+ years. This programme is all about you and no one else. Before you know it, you’ll be getting better run by run.
Wish I’d taken your attitude because I love running now. I graduated today and it’s the best feeling!
Take it steady and enjoy the moment when you drop into conversation with those silly kids that you can run for 30mins without stopping. 2020 is all about endurance, not sprinting! 👍🏻
Thank you 😊 and congratulations! - MiniNoodle
Hello MiniNoodle,
I think you will find C25K amazing. It builds you up slowly, so if you have patience and do your runs every week I think you will see excellent results. Is your Mum going to bike or scoot along with you?
I hope you have a really good time with your C25k challenge, and well done you for taking it on.
Thank you 😊 I think bike. Today she ran with me 🏃🏻♀️🏃🏻♀️ - MiniNoodle
PS I will drop a run and do a couple of runs with MiniNoodle and bike when I have too 🙃 - HappyNoodle
So cool. We are all waiting for your next write up. Keep us posted!
Well done, I hope you enjoy it. My 11 year old and 13 year old girls have just completed week 1 so you're not alone! They too have seen a difference in me and have been encouraged to try and get fitter and have more self confidence before school starts again.
Yay 😀 thank you - MiniNoodle
Welcome MiniNoodle and well done on getting started on this challenge. Hope you enjoy it as much as I have.
Thank you, me too 🏃🏻♀️- MiniNoodle
Way to go MiniNoodle! With that proactive attitude I think you’ll go far. No pun intended 😂. Keep it fun and enjoy your runs.
😍🏃🏻♀️ fun runs all the way- MiniNoodle
Go for it MiniNoodle (great name) you’ll soon improve at running and you’ll be amazed at how much your fitness stamina and confidence increases. Ignore people who tease you, you’ll show them.....let their negativity make you even more determined......Good Luck on your journey 👍
Thank you ☺️- MiniNoodle
