I am so pleased I completed week 9, run 3 last night. I tried couch to 5 k 2 years ago and got to week 7, then went on holiday and stopped running, so I am very proud that I kept at it this time. I am 54 years old and very slow so don’t know when I will be able to run 5k as I struggle to run for 30 minutes, but I want to keep trying.

Woo hoo!! Congratulations 🥳 🏅 🏃‍♀️ 🎉 It must be extra sweet after getting to week 7 before.

Have you thought about consolidating yet or are you too busy celebrating for now?

Thank you, I’m celebrating now but I want to keep running, it’s hard running for 30 minutes but at least I know I can do it

Well done! Don't worry about distance, most people don't make 5k by the end of the programme, myself included! Just keep running 😃
