Where do we all live? I live in France so can't register my location on the site. I wonder how many of us are ex-pats or non-UK?

I'm an ex-pat - living in Mali, West Africa! Did all of the C25K programme either here in Mali, or in neighbouring Burkina Faso (had to evacuate for a bit - got a bit dangerous here for a while!) I have LOVED having this link with other people running the same runs I was, even if it wasn't in the same place.

boring old me - in the rainy UK - love the idea of NHS c25k going international though, it shows that like minds working to a common goal make a good community - age/location/gender - all that stuff doesn't matter at all

I am in the USA, too, and I live in Atlanta. I am a transplant from San Francisco. It's awfully hot here, and I sorely miss the overcast skies, and sea breeze. I am trying to spread the word about this wonderful program to people I see on the trail during my runs, but I don't know if anyone has actually followed up on my suggestion.

Thanks for answering everyone -it's so interesting to see that we all do the same programme but miles/kilometres apart! Isn't Internet incredible too?

Good Luck ! Hope you are keeping fit and well. Week 8 - wow, I wish I was with you. My knee seems to be getting better and I am hoping to go out on Friday for a test run! I think I'm going to go back to the end of week 4 to see how I go .... I'll let you know.

Hello, how great to hear on the mend. If all goes well you'll be able to complete by the end of the summer. Fingers crossed for you. You know the weeks just fly by, I can't believe I'm starting week 9 soon!

Just picked up your reply. Where abouts are you? I know Confolens really quite well and just over the border into Limousin.

I bet you have some lovely countryside to run through. I'm looking forward to the holidays and being able to run beside the Vienne in Confolens. Good luck with the programme.
