So this morning I completed c25k!! From being terrified to stepping out of the front door to completing the whole prog! Haven’t got to 5k but have done the full 30 mins and it means the world! Cannot thank the support and advice on here enough! Xx

Am thinking of carrying on at this level for a few weeks and then think about increasing some and hopefully pace! I got to 3.5k which is fine! So now to aim for the 5k! It’s good to have a goal! Will be having a mooch around the consolidation club and bridge to 10k for advice. Lots of luck to you......am sure you’ll do it! If I can, anyone can!! Xxx

A great goal! Yes I agree I definitely need something to focus on once i’ve completed too to keep me motivated, will definitely still be using this forum! Thank you! Good luck with your 5k goal! Xxx

Thankyou so much! It’s a lovely feeling! Especially as I found that last run tough and the gremlins in my head were telling me to quit! Xxx

Congratulations! 🍾🎆🏆🏅

And when you're doing consolidation runs, remember the 10% rule: don't try to extend by more than either 10% of distance or duration per week.

Thankyou. I think I’m gonna really take my time and maybe only look at 5%. Xxx
