Graduated!!!!

I have managed to do couch to 5k! I am utterly shocked! I really struggled on the first couple of weeks where I was using my inhaler a lot for my asthma, and today I did my last run no inhaler needed! I decided to continue to reach the 5k too and managed it in 33 minutes! I definitely feel the benefits of running, just want to give advice to people out there to keep going and you will get there! Now I can enjoy the Easter weekend 🐣

Congratulations. That’s a fantastic milestone both for the programme and to keep going for the distance too. Happy Easter.

I even re did week 5 due to knee injury I had a week off but persisted after resting up! Definitely achievable :)

Many congrats it’s amazing how we go from struggling in week 1, hopefully the running will help your health too.
