OMG - this is quite incredible! I did my wk3 first run today and was so nervous. I thought about doing wk2 again as I was getting so worried that I wouldn't be able to make a three min stint....but I did!

I feel so amazed at this.......its such a positive feeling knowing I've gotten up and pushed myself and achieved this.

I'm most definitely a very slow jogger. I feel like I may walk quicker than I jog sometimes! Yet I'm doing it.

Very well done! This program will continue to amaze you run by run, week by week! :-) Don't worry about going slow, there is no such thing as to slow as you concentrate on building stamina. My first weeks, I was passed by several turtles and snails. ;-) Gayle

Fab! Well done. Like Gayle says, C25k will take you to places you never ever thought you'd go! I was so scared of fluffing W3 and when I did it I had a big grin on my face for days! You can do this (my running mantra).

Not what you're looking for?
