Thank you c25k

Post by Runnerboy »

On April 12th this year I started c25k and couldn't complete the first run!
Over the weeks and months I have kept going through all the highs and lows.

Today I competed in my first triathlon a 400m lake swim followed by a 20k bike ride on a hilly course and to finish a 4k run.

And I finished!

Best of all I have raised £1500 for Macmillan cancer support!

So thank you for getting this brilliant app out there and helping today.

Anyone that wants to know what to do next have a look at triathlons as they are great fun hard work but very fulfilling.

Good luck everyone and remember if you think you can you will!
