Hi everyone,

I've been following the get running app since May. Starting a new job and being ill have messed up my schedule a bit though so I've only just finished week 7.

But today I ran my first ever 5K!! In 34 minutes!! So so proud of myself. It was a sponsored run and I've raised about £300 for charity too!

I managed to run for almost the whole distance, I stopped and walked for about a minute just a couple of times.

Next step: finish get running (with the knowledge that I CAN do it)!
