Yet i've had a mental breakthrough lately, have started the C25k app (called Ease into 5k now I think) and have been able to do it 2 times this week already and feel amazing for it! <br /><br />I'm at 73.5 and want to get to at least 68 before 1st June, hoping more like 65 :) <br /><br />My tip is to focus on making the distance and time you are set (the whole app duration) rather than running at full speed... as long as you keep going that's what matters,it's ok if you run isn't much faster than your walk - you will get faster as your stamina builds. That's definitely what's made it do-able for me and I feel ALL the better for it :)<br /><br />P.s. i'm posting on it soon too x<br /><br />Jesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00729022173389137231noreply@blogger.com
