Always loved cycling,but not ran since school.have not been active at all for a couple of years now,but at the age of 56 thought i need to change.I must say only on week 2 but i feel much better already,noticed a massive change in concentration and generally feeling more energetic!!! Skipping a day inbetween runs makes me look forwaŕd to my nxt one.😁

I was the same, I also had not run since leaving school until C25K, although like you I have cycled since I was at Primary School.I hope you enjoy your running journey with C25K, but don't stop cycling, I still cycle but mainly during the summer months.

I didn't even run at school! I did get into cycling during my college years, though, from necessity, but didn't continue it due to the bike being lost in a garage fire a few years later.
