    I just started C25K again, and I am right on your heels @rianneonamission . My first week 2 workout is tomorrow, and gotta admit I'm looking forward to it!

    My runs are so slow (8kph)!

    And from the other side - I was mega chuffed with myself today for getting up to 8kph! :D

    I started c25k in earnest just over a year ago.

    I ran a (very hilly) half marathon on Sunday. I wouldn't have been able to do that without the progression that c25k gives you. It's a great programme. Follow it, go slowly, and you may find you have to choose between it and other formal exercise for a while.

    I'm now switching to strength training, swimming and cycling, but will keep up the running - now I know I can habitually run 5k's three times a week doing other activities are a good way of building strength.
