Hi everyone and thank you for being there everyday. On Friday I completed the C25K. Iโ€™m 67 and never been a runner. I have co-workers that started the program and that encouraged me to join. I am so happy I did. It hasnโ€™t been easy my biggest challenge was my breathing but I was determined to complete the program. Itโ€™s now complete and today I do my first out of the program run. I plan on just repeating the last run again. Thank you to all my helpers out there. To you new ones donโ€™t give up it is an accomplishment I am very proud of. Thank you Couch 2 5k!!! ๐Ÿ˜˜

Iโ€™m sure that you will. Thereโ€™s something addictive about the feeling you get when youโ€™ve finished a run - it keeps you coming back for more ๐Ÿ˜Š If you feel a lack of motivation at any point just come back on here.
