I'm on week 5 of C25K and this morning's run was TOUGH
C25K week 3 🏃
✅ 3 run/walk sessions, every run interval done
🏋️ 4 lifts, 3 rides, a boxing session, 1 humbling ocean swim
💪 Real PRs: heavier straight-arm pulldowns and kettlebell transfers
Gave the walk breaks their own HR target, and now they actually bring it back down.

It’s 80 degrees on Oct 30! My little C25K run left me way overheated! Azaleas are blooming! I’m sure this is fine!

No sé cuánto has corrido pero échale un vistazo al plan C25K del NHS.

I decided to play it safe and focused on lower weights. DOMS are gonna hit hard as is so I want to just slowly build that stamina and resistance again.
Also restarted C25K again. I feel so good today :D

A boxing session tucked into C25K week 3 is a strong mix. Smart move giving the walk breaks their own heart rate target.

Over the last 3 days of October I saw quite a lot of migrating birds on patch, with c25k redwing (!), c120 fieldfare, c150 song thrush, and 79 blackbirds, plus a thousand or so WP. Nothing unusual mixed in though, with the one #PWC2026 ✅ being rock pipit.

C25k Week 1 Day 1 down!
I think I have to put it on my watch & not just my phone because it messed up my fitness tracking & did it even really happen if my fitness app didn’t record it properly?

Now that I think about it, I think last time I used one of the C25k apps I had it sync to RunKeeper and then RunKeeper synced to Apple Fitness 😕

22.5 minutes - just over 2 miles - at race pace today, only another 11 miles to add 😀
Given up on C25K & will incrementally increase the distance.
Just a reminder that it’s all for a reason, supporting the amazing Beatson Cancer Charity - any support would be greatly appreciated 😊

C25K, now in week 2 🏃
✅ 3 run/walk sessions, every run interval done
🏋️ 5 lifts, 3 rides, 1 easy walk
💪 Real PRs: more bench reps, heavier rows, best crunch set yet
Today my HR finally sat where the plan wants it on the runs. The walk breaks still don't bring it down.

Which Couch to 5K app? For most beginners the free NHS one does the job. I put it next to Nike Run Club, Runna and three more, using the NHS and store pages. Comparison: jamesgonzofitness.com/blog/best-co...
Best Couch to 5K App UK 2026: Free NHS App vs Paid Ones

New knee problems stop me from going more than 3 km at the moment. Which is a shame, because I wanna run as far away from my MIL as possible 😆

One year since we seamlessly melded our #C25K programme into our weekly #parkrun and we decided to return to Albert Park to celebrate the anniversary. Didn't set out to do a fast one, but apparently my Z2 and sprint work is paying off, and I ended up with a new 5K PB of 23:55!

First week of Couch to 5K 🏃
✅ 3 run/walk sessions, every run interval done
🏋️ 5 short lifts, 3 rides
Lesson so far: my heart rate climbs all session and the 90-sec walk breaks don't bring it back down yet. Fitbod keeps handing me PRs, mostly on lifts it had never logged for me.

I can't believe I griped about a lack of free resources without sharing the free resource that I have been using and that is quite nice for the last while. I've just already completed the c25k and b210k and that's as far as the plans go. f-droid.org/en/packages/...

It occurred to me that a good place to start is the 4/5/7 stages of grieving (there are many models out there, apparently).
Unlike c25k, they may not be linear.
I remember telling a mate of mine that he wouldn't really start until 6 months after his accident. I was right, for him.(So much rehab!)
