I`ve just started C25k and came across this video which I found very motivating. Its an incredible video, and shows what can be done if you put your mind to it.

    A friend of mine posted that video to my Facebook about 3 weeks before my marathon, and I just sat there weeping as I watched. So amazing.

    And, yes. Couch to 5k is awesome...I graduated May 16, 2009.
