I very rarely post but reading everyone’s stories has inspired me to keep going through C25K. I graduated for the 2nd time 3 weeks ago and yesterday completed my first park run and 5K. I’m so happy 😁 πŸŽ‰so just wanted to say a big Thank You 😊 to all of you who post and keep me going! πŸƒβ€β™€οΈ
