Yesterday I didn't do anything as I am still gutted at not being able to run or walk so was in a wee sulk. Today however I went to the gym and did 20k in 47 minutes which is a PB. Need to do this til the end of the challenge if I am going to achieve my personal goal.

9 days left!

Good good. It all counts, I walked today and felt really low in energy and spirit.

This will not be habit forming for me, if I didn't know there was an endpoint I would probably have given up today.

Everyday with no rest days is too much.

If you look through some of the teams it looks like a lot of people signed up and haven't done anything.

Only nine days to go! Single figures now.

Oh dear I omitted the bike part lol! Obviously I would prefer to run or walk but I have to listen to the advice given by the professionals. Hopefully at the end of my treatment I can redo c25k if necessary but for now the gym bike will have to suffice.

I agree George, the fact there is an end date is likely keeping us going. Where do you see what other teams have done?

Click on view team and you can click on individuals. A lot of people are working hard but many aren't. If everyone registered had done 5k a day the site total distance would be over 1 millions done but they are only at about half that.
