Well I never thought it would happen but here I am potentially just 4 runs from becoming a C25K Graduate.
I'm running pretty slowly 'cos I was worse than unfit so I'm just focused on getting to the 30 minute mark at the moment. I'm starting to feel that I could go faster but don't want to jeopardise the progress I'm making.
However, post graduation I really want to start working towards achieving the 5k and was wondering if any of you have any tips / experience in doing this.

it's a good idea to focus on keeping going for 30+ minutes before worrying about speed- after all, you're in this for the long-term! Afterwards you will find the 5k+ podcasts useful for increasing speed. There are three of them and can be done in any order. They will have you running to a beat and it won't matter if you can't manage them straight away because they can be repeated as many times as you like. Enjoy your running!
Thanks for that, I've just been and had a look at the descriptions of the podcasts and it looks like they will be really useful - thanks for the tip :o)
