At 58, and never having run (even at school), I did the C25K this year.
Deliberately took it slow, and repeated most weeks before moving on (as I have had knee trouble in the past). Overall it took 15 weeks, but I completed the course in early March and have done it over 30 times since then!
So I'm pretty pleased with myself. Averaging 29-30 mins to do my 5K circuit every other day.
(I just have the final run on repeat every time)
I only just worked out about the badge, so hopefully this will be forthcoming ...
Definitely recommend C25K to everyone

Congratulations.If you had knee issues in the past it would be wise to do regular knee strengthening exercises, as old injuries often recur, but can be minimised by building strength.
