So the most amazing thing happened today! I ran my first 10K race this morning in Cambridge in 1 hour, 2 minutes and 28 seconds. My fastest training run was 1 hour, 8 mins and 29 seconds. My first 5K this morning were the fastest I've ever run, at 30 mins 52 secs. I started on C25K, then followed ju-ju- 's Magic 10K Plan, completing it a couple of weeks ago. This group is brilliant for motivation, knowledge and encouragement. Thanks to all the members and admins x

Congratulations to you JB on completing your first 10K race, you have proved what a lot of people have realised including myself that running with many people gets a better time than running on your own. 😊 πŸƒπŸΎ

Congratulations on your 10k race, that’s a massive achievement and what an impressive time! Juju really works, it’s magic and how lucky are we to have followed this.

Enjoy the glory of your victory today! What are your next plans? Are you having a rest? Or straight into running again?

Will carry on with a 4, 5 and 10K each week for a while, then aim for sub 30 min 5K and sub hour 10K πŸ€—
