C25K completed!

Wow! 9 weeks ago I never thought I’d achieve this!Just done my last run around our meadow. I haven’t run on the road yet because I was concerned my knees might complain. I stopped running 15 years ago because of my knees hurting a bit.

This programme is brilliant. I just trusted I could achieve each step and didn’t need to repeat any weeks. I’ve learnt so much from this forum that I wished I had known in my previous running life. Next, I want to run on the lanes as laps round the meadow have got a bit boring.

Thank you, administrators and contributors, for all the excellent tips and encouragement.

Thanks. Did first post-graduation run 30min yesterday on the road. The challenge now is to keep it going but will be easier as weather improves.
