So I have just completed my first run of week 8. I did it without stopping 🤩. I was going to repeat week 7 again this week as my last two run of week 7 I stopped twice so In my mind I was thinking king if I couldn’t complete 25 mins without stopping I’m definitely not doing 28. But I did and feeling super proud of myself!

We had planned to climb snowden after I have completed C25K, was due to finish next week but I’m a week behind due to surgery (I’m ok) anyway we have decided to still do snowden next Sunday......wish me luck!

Have a great day everyone; iv got a busy one planned before I’m back at work tomorrow x

I tried to climb Helvellyn the day after my very first run of C25k. You can guess it was a disaster as my legs were a bit sore after the run and I could only get around 2 thirds of the way up. Coming down was even worse and to make matters worse I couldn’t run again for another four days.

I'm hearing reports that Snowdon/Yr Wyddfa is quite busy these days and the cafe and loos at the top are shut. Check the situation before you set out.
