I did it. Haha after 4 years or so on and off running, lockdown has spurred me on and I managed a HM today in 2.20. A year ago I was towards the end of C25K for the third time (I ran 4k in just over 30 mins exactly a year ago today) and hoping, but not confident, that I might have a 10k in my legs one day. I never dreamed I'd run a HM but the support on this forum has given me the belief and confidence to push on and I no longer feel like a fraud. Thanks everybody and thanks running for keeping me sane through the horror of last year. A very special thank you (even if she won't see it) to Carol Kirkwood who shared her C25K experience on breakfast news and convinced me to put on my trainers.

What a lovely post LadyGault , thank you! 👍

I'm just about getting over imposter syndrome on this forum. However, I surprised myself by my reaction today when a car came a bit too close to me, which was to say out loud "Hey, don't mind me, I'm only a runner!" I'm considering it progress! 🤣
