Done it!

[BishyBarnabee]

Hello to all you amazing folks out there in this brilliant forum. So much help and advice and support! I wonder how many people you have helped on their way to a healthy and sweaty life! Thanks to all of you.

I was determined to do a 10k before my 63rd birthday, and I did it!

Thanks to you all, but not sure where to go from here on. Any suggestions?

Happy running! 😊🐞

Woohoo! Well done BB! An amazing achievement for you, and I bet you’re still euphoric. 😀👏💪👊👍

Are you interesting in 10k races? That’s what I aimed for. And maybe you’re interested in running further eventually - but no hurry to do that. I spent a few months pootling about, then worked up to 10 miles. Next goal HM! See, the running world is your oyster!

Enjoy your celebrations, and good luck with whatever you decide! 😀👏

Thanks Cheeky. Let’s put the shoes on and run (even a little bit,) cheers from sweltering Germany!

Whoop whoop 🎉🎈👏💪 congratulations and well done to you. Hope you had a proper celebration!

Just keep running, stick to a routine and enjoy it. You can mix things up a little and try a faster shorter run or a hilly run or trail/road whatever is different to what you normally do. Just keep running amok 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️

I like the “running amok” bit! The tracks are no longer safe when the likes of us are around!
