7 weeks ago when I read about the Couch to 5 k plan I would never have believed I'd be running for 25 minutes non-stop six weeks later. I struggled to run the 60 second bursts back on week one but today I am amazed at my progress, I ran non-stop without even getting a stitch. Somehow this longer run was easier than stopping and starting on the running/walking podcasts? And when Laura told me at the end of the podcast that I am now officially I runner I jumped for joy. Doing 5k Race for Life next Sunday and am feeling confident that I can really do this now. Thank you Laura, thank you C25K :) Start week 7 on Tuesday

I did that one yesterday morning. It was great to have Laura tell us that we're officially runners now! :-) And I have my Race for Life next Sunday too.

Well done, I completed this Friday and it was sucha great feeling to complete this one.

Like you I sort of found this easier than the runs with intervals, which I also thought strange.

Best of luck for the Race for Life and week 7
