It's an awesome feeling isn't it. Hold on to it and whenever you feel yourself flag on a run think how good it feels to challenge yourself and achieve a new personal goal.

You look so happy in that photograph, well done on completing week 1 of C25K, you deserve to be very proud of yourself, onwards and upwards to week 2, remember that you can repeat any runs or week's if you wish to, drink plenty of water to keep hydrated, no running on consecutive days, I wish you well for your running journey with C25K 😊 🏃🏾
