Been doing C25K. Decided to skip week 8 (of 9) and go for the full 5k this morning. Done.
Now I've got 15 weeks to turn 5k into 21k before the Kerikeri Half Marathon on November 17.

That is awesome - you should be so proud of yourself.
I did the C25K and I still remember the first time I ran for 20 minutes straight (Xmas day 2009). It is such a buzz
Good luck with your 1/2 marathon training0 -
Well done! That is an awesome challenge to look foward to, all the best, I'm just finishing off week 14 C210k and I love it. Never thought I would ever be able to run and it feels good!0

Amazing! Congrats! I am at week 5 and can just run a mile now, can't wait to be able to run a full 5k! Good luck on your 21k!0

Well done - keep up the great work !0

Ah well done you, Great achievement! I am half way through this now and at the moment 5k constant running looks impossible to me but I know it will happen!
You must feel great, good luck for your half marathon training :-)0 -
I'm only doing 10kph (6mph) at the mo' but 2 months ago I was struggling to jog for two minutes nevermind 30. The program relly works if you stick with it.0

Welcome to the happiest thing in the entire world0

Whee, congratulations! Hope you get some nice nearly-summer weather for the 21km run, and good luck with it.0

Good job! I did C25K as well... could barely handle running a minute at the beginning, but can now pretty easily run 5 miles without thinking about it. I did my first 5K race this past weekend, and am now looking to run more of those along with training for a 10K.
And awesome for you for a half marathon!0
