In January 2013 I started the c25k for the first time, My distance was 1.81 miles, which is about 2.9km which is not too shabby for a first go ever, but then you have to bear in mind that it was mostly walking, something like 1 min run and 1.5 min walk with 5 mins… Read More Day 271: I made all the way around!

Good morning 🙂 I have mentioned previously that I am going to supplement the main challenge with some smaller challenges to keep me going.
