well what about that. I ran a whole 28 mins tonight :) it was hard but it was good (if u know what I mean) I can't believe I can run for this amount of time in such a short time, I'm two stone over weight and am on week ten of giving up smoking so i consider that a bloody good achievement :) (pat on the back me). next run Friday before I go camping, then final 28 on Monday after camping (in the rain I may add) then on to week 9. unbelievable!!!!

You deserve that pat on the back. That's a great achievement, 28 minutes and no smokes. You must be feeling fantastic, the weight will soon go too. Have fun camping :)

Well done, lucky you going camping, I bet you find all the putting up tent, banging in tent pegs etc goes much better now you are fitter. I love camping, cant wait to go again

Many pats on the back from a fellow ex-smoker and C25K graduate. You've done the hard part of the programme now. Good luck with the weight. Mine's starting to come off slowly too. xxx
