I am feeling very proud of myself, I have just finished W9R3. Not bad for a 64 year old lass. I am amazed that I actually enjoy it. Many thanks to friends and family for their help and encouragement.Really enjoy reading all the posts on here and find them very helpful. I have managed to hit 4K, now to build up slowly to 5!! Right off to get my graduation badge.

Well done! You can take the rest of the day off before planning your next adventure ;)

So what is next then - parkrun or are you going to sign up for a 10K... ;)

Seriously, that's a fantastic achievement.

Well done Lonerider, that is an amazing achievement. I'm a newbie here, started today and I hope that one day I will be at your level.

Well done you!

That is inspirational, well done. I am 52 and graduated around 15 weeks ago, feels like a victory for more mature ladies - go you, sounds as if you have a great fan base!

Brilliant! Huge Congratulations...We slightly more mature ladies need to stick together., and show the younger folk it can be done!

(I am 65 and graduated the week before Christmas...like you, I really enjoyed it and got so much out of it, not just the running, but loads of other benefits.

Get your badge...show it off proudly.... and then, maybe Couch to 5K+...I can really recommend it..great fun! :)
