I'm just excited to share. I followed C25K in 2015 and spent the whole spring, summer and autumn running. I did a 10k back then and felt great.
In 2016, I slipped off track, barely did any exercising let alone running.
Now I've decided to get back in the game and my first run was a 4k over the Easter weekend. I went very very slowly and was prepared to take a lot of walking breaks but I was surprised to find that I didn't need to. I just focused on my breath and not over-exerting myself and it was a breeze.
Anyway - I'm happy to get back to running and will probably hit the pavement again tonight. Hoping to get back to those 10ks this summer.
