I don't think at this point it matters too much about speed, but remember the end aim is to run 5k in around 30 minutes. Lots of people don't achieve that with this programme even by the end though, so don't worry! You've the rest of your life to work up to it
If you're not finding it too tough I'd up the pace a little, but keep it to a speed you're comfortable and happy at. Well done for doing the programme
Forget speed or distance.. the ethos of the C25K programme is, and I quote,
"The NHS Couch to 5K plan is designed to get you off the couch and gradually work you up to running 5K or for half an hour, in just nine weeks."
So.. you just run... enjoy it and take each run as it comes...take it slow and steady and don't push too hard...that is a great way to end up on the IC...
If you are able. maybe take a walk on the wild side? Get outdoors? Very different but loads of fun
Well done you for doing this anyway... your journey... your own style
