Week 7 run 2 done. Ran at 11 min per mile so I'm well on course for the 10 min pace required for week 9. It was a fantastic run in the sunshine along Hove sea front today I felt like a runner!

My average today was 12.28 min /mile so am very jealous of your pace! Also would love to be running along the sea front!!

Hi, I completed the same run yesterday! I too am starting to feel like a runner and can't believe how positive I feel towards the programme. I really look forward to the runs when in the past I would dread the thought of exercise. I just hope the enthusiasm continues. I don't know how fast I run but plan to up the pace once I crack week 9.

I sometimes run in Eastbourne if I get the opportunity. It is a great place to run, much flatter for me than at home and the seafront is beautiful. There are lots of runners so you'll fit right in there!

And I've entered 2 10k runs in July so I'll have to keep it up! Glad to hear you've benefitted from the program it is a great formula and the c25k community is superb good to have other people out there who understand how you feel.
