Still can't quite believe it! I've got from struggling to complete a 90 second run to doing 5.8k! Woooohoooo! Did my run on a treadmill tonight - never done that before. Am so pleased that I can do it! If you're a beginner you can do it too,you may struggle at times but never give up. I've gone from a couch potato to a lean keen running machine and you will too! Wooohoooo!

Wow - well done. Gives people like me the idea that it is possible! I'm really looking forward to making my way through each week (even if it takes me a little while longer than a week sometimes) and arriving at the point you are now!

Well Done - it's very encouraging to know there are so many bloggers on here that have started as non-runners who can now do 5K :)
