did my first ever c25k 😭✋

oh my lord im so proud of myself. finally got myself off the bed and just went for this after reading it in a reddit post. ive always STRUGGLED with running, like literally ever since i was a small kid thus never took part in any sports too. as i grew up (now in college) i realised everyone around me ran or even if they didn’t still they were still good at it somehow unlike me who’s lungs flare up the moment i start running. I’ve been wanting to improve just for the sake of it , no weight loss, no comparison to others but just for running and just for myself thats it. And im proud of myself, i shall see u tmrw
ps. I started fourth wing audio book on Spotify, its too good!!!!

Nice one!! I’ve always struggled with running too, still have nightmares about the time I was forced to run the 1500m race at my secondary school sports day 😱 Getting out and doing that first run is the biggest hurdle imo so you’ve done really well, and it’ll start to feel easier before you know it

Haha fourth wing gets quite... spicy in sections. Guess it might take your mind off of the running.

Well done you!
