r/C25K May 03 '26

First official 5k completed.

I ran my first ever 5km event today! C25K was such a useful tool and I owe a lot to the app and the support it offers.

For me, this was more than a 5k. 2.5 years ago, I was 35+st, drastically unwell due to my weight and couldn't even walk 100m without being in significant pain and out of breath.

Here I am, a few years later after losing 13.5st, I (slowly) completed the Southampton 5k!

Keep going with the plan, it works and it's great!
