At the end of the day, it doesn't matter if you have done the run or not. The main reason I started this thread was that exercise has been proven to help mental health conditions (ok, except anorexia when the patient is medically at risk), and so even if you don't do a run, getting some exercise is a positive step. I think I just find the c25k useful because it TELLS me what to do, and so there is less kind of decision making in my own mind.
