I ONLY DONE IT 🏅🏅

[apak692000]

Hi all,

Today was my final run and I did it on m so proud of myself and I can’t thank you all enough for your kind words and support throughout my journey. I really didn’t think I would be able to do this but I have and I absolutely love it.

Couch to 5k has changed my life, as I’ve mentioned I’ve suffered with anxiety and stress all my life and this has been the medicine that has cured me.

I can’t believe this I’m a different guy and the change has been amazing THANK YOU.

Also just to let you know I ran 4.3k in 30mins so my target is to run 5k in 30mins but all in good time.

Thanks again

Andy

Well done! It’s great to hear it’s helping your mental health as well. I have bipolar and have found running to be more effective than the meds I’m on.

Hi there,

I’m glad it’s also helping you, mental health sucks but atleast we are doing somthing to fight this. I can’t believe how much of a difference it’s made.

All the best

Well done graduate! Great achievement 👍🏻running has sorted my mental health issues out too after 20plus years of medication not really doing much. Getting out and spending time appreciating the world around you plus the added fitness benefits have been a game changer for me. Best of luck on your running journey, keep it up!

[apak692000 in reply to Jericho2332]

Hey jericho Thank you for you comment. I’ve also been on meds for over twenty years to not much avail but they have certainly helped. I was to scared to exercise as I thought I would drop dead my anxiety is health related. But I wanted to face my demons and do what my brain/body was telling me not to do and I’m so glad I have I’m stronger in many ways even quit smoking instant with no problems as I was looking at that as a demon to. I wish you all the best also thank you
