Week 5 in the bag!

I did it! Really didn’t think I’d be running for a full 20 mins after just 5 weeks. It was tough but do-able and absolutely worth it for the euphoria afterwards. Looking forward to my weekend off! Thank you everyone for the encouragement.

Congratulations on completing run 3 of week 5, that is a milestone run with C25K, onwards and upwards to week 6 run 1 but be careful about that run as it catches out some people with the interval walks and runs after the non stop 20 minutes of W5R3 which you have just ran 🏃🏾 😊
