I hope youโre all enjoying the weekend and the lovely weather! ๐
I decided to start the Bridge to 10K today, as itโs my birthday. I feel that as I reach a โnew age,โ Iโm ready to mark my special day with the start of the next phase of my running journey.
I graduated C25K on 23rd August and have been running 5k, three times a week since. All my running history has been outdoors, which at times has been a struggle (as a lot of my routes have included numerous hills). But thanks to my generous family, I now have a fab new treadmill (and it would be rude not to use it). Iโm hoping that this will encourage me to run regularly throughout the winter months ahead (although I do still want to venture outdoors when I can).
I feel thoroughly spoilt and enjoyed every second of my 2.5K run and I also wore my new Garmin watch (birthday gift to self). ๐
Who would have thought that I would be so excited to receive such gifts and eager for a run on my birthday!!! This demonstrates how great the C25K plan is and how running is becoming a new way of living for me.
Onwards and upwards.....๐๐ฝโโ๏ธ๐๐ฝโโ๏ธ๐๐ฝโโ๏ธ๐๐ฝโโ๏ธ

Congratulations Vix, thatโs a great decision. Happy birthday too! ๐๐ฐ๐พ๐ฅ
Just take B210K slowly and steadily and youโll get through it. I followed Ju-Juโs โ10 is the magic numberโ plan. Thereโs usually a โpinned postโ for it on the B210K community. ๐ I found it excellent and graduated a few weeks ago. Just remember itโs not about time and pace, itโs about distance๐๐
Thank you so much David_G and congratulations on graduating the B210K plan! ๐พ๐ฅ๐๐๐
I acknowledge that my pace was fast today (as I found treadmill running easier) but I plan on slowing my pace as I increase the distance. I have made a note of Ju-Juโs plan, thank you! ๐๐ฝโโ๏ธ๐๐ฝโโ๏ธ๐๐ฝโโ๏ธ
I wish you all the best on your running journey! ๐
Happy Birthday to you! It is amazing how C25k changes us even as to what we may like for our birthday gifts! Well done to you! Take it easy as it is easy to be injured pushing too hard too soon. I'm hoping for an early birthday present of a PB at a Parkrun! Such a change from ever before! All the very best for your onward running journey. ๐๐ปโโ๏ธ๐๐ปโโ๏ธ๐๐ปโโ๏ธ๐
