To anyone starting out or who has finished the programme and wondering what next - join an organised 5 k run!! Went to Liverpool last weekend and did the rock and roll 5 k. Did it in 38 mins which I know is slow but my personal best!! Brilliant atmosphere and running a new and unknown course seemed to help. Felt amazing afterwards and really glad I did it !

Well done.........a pb is a pb and something to be proud of.

Running in big groups doesn't work for everyone but the easiest way to try it out is to join the parkrun movement, which is free, regular and worldwide. More details in this FAQ Post healthunlocked.com/couchto5....
