9k done🤗🤗

[Buddy34]

Last week's 8k I ran in -4 , today it was 8 degrees it actually felt warm.

Today's run was a bit tougher than last Monday's but I did it I just slowed right down on certain bits and it really helped.

So next Monday it's 10k and I've now got confidence in myself that I can do it.

Happy running every one 🤗🤗

I ran in 9 degrees and I agree, felt really warm today!

amazing time and an amazing distance. you'll be doing marathons soon!

[Buddy34 Graduate10 in reply to FatterPenguin]

I think 10k will be my limit but then I thought 5k was my limit😂

[Katnap Graduate10 in reply to Buddy34]

There are loads of recently added badges to aim at between 10k and HM so it isn't such a large leap.

Eg. 15k, 10 miles, 2 hours

If its a significant milestone then a badge can be made 😃

Just say pretty please with a cherry on top!

I think i deserve a medal now. Going to look at 10k runs near me for next year 🏃‍♀️🏅

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate10]

You will do it next Monday. Congratulations on your 9K this morning Buddy34, good time as well, a bit smirry and light rain, a contrast to last week, I predict that next week you will run the 10K in around 65 minutes. 😊 🏃🏾

[Buddy34 Graduate10 in reply to AlMorr]

Thanks AlMorr I'm really pleased I did it I'm knackered now 🤗

[Annieapple Administrator]

Thanks Annieapple, see you've changed your avitar 🤗

[Maz1234]

Congratulations on the 9k. Good luck for 10 k next week even though I don’t think you need any luck. Half marathon training next?.

[Buddy34 Graduate10 in reply to Maz1234]

Thanks. Think I will stick to 10k but you never know 🤗

[marmalademonster Graduate10]

[Dowat Graduate10]

Great run Buddy34. You’re cruising along very nicely. Good to have near tropical conditions after last week’s freeze! Enjoy that 10k.

[damienair Administrator]

Very well done. I’m sure you will have no problem doing 10K next week. It’s just another 2.5 laps of an athletics track.

[Buddy34 Graduate10 in reply to Grannyhugs]

Hello Grannytobe were you out running today ?🤗

[Grannyhugs Graduate10 in reply to Buddy34]

After 3 days heavy gardening, no stretching 9-4 each day, I dragged myself out on a really should do this run in dark misty dreich weather. Can't say I enjoyed it but 33min 5k as w5r3 B2 10 done and dusted. Really need to find new routes but in midst of putting house on market so high stress, time short at the moment.

[Buddy34 Graduate10 in reply to Grannyhugs]

You've been busy. Look after yourself 🤗

[Grannyhugs Graduate10 in reply to Buddy34]

Found an old phone loaded with music I used to ski with, that'll cheer me up in this yucky weather running.

[tiggs1 Graduate10]

You are doing great and I am sure you will enjoy reaching your 10k goal next week

[Over62]

[Beachcomber66 Graduate10]

[Jacca]

Well done Buddy!! 😱10k next Monday 🤩🤩🤩

[Debston Graduate10]

Woohoo! Well done Buddy34, you are an inspiration! So impressed with your speed, you should definitely enter a 10k race!

[sTrongFuse Graduate10]

Well done, and by the looks of it you've set yourself up for a very good time for your first one.

Can't believe the difference in temperature. Last week when I got home there was actually frost forming on top of my hat, this week was positively toasty by comparison.

[Buddy34 Graduate10 in reply to sTrongFuse]

I quite liked running in -4 and I liked the 8 degrees today. 🤗

[Franglaise Graduate10]

Fabulous.....great time too.

[Dexy5 Graduate10]

Well done Buddy34, you’ve got this. I look forward to seeing you on the podium next week.

[Buddy34 Graduate10 in reply to Dexy5]

Hopefully. Need to find a better 10k route 🤗

[Vegout25]

Well done Buddy34, outstanding effort. You’ll smash the 10k next week 😊👍

[cheekychipmunks Graduate10]

You’ve definitely got this Buddy! That was a great run and that 10k badge is all ready for you, itching to be worn and admired. 😍 🏅 Your pace is awesome too. You are a great runner! 👏👏👏

[Sparkey5000 60minGraduate]

Awesome.....🎉🎉🎉🎉

Looking forward to seeing that new graduate banner next to your name.

[AliHC Graduate10]

Well done Buddy34 ❤️ You're doing great! And with a fantastic time too! Have a great week and I look forward to hearing about your 10k next week! xxx

[caroldavies071969 Graduate10]

Well done! That's a great pace! I have done 10k 3 times in the last couple of months and my best time is 1 hr 17 mins (pace 7.40 min/km). I'd love to be able to run was fast as you!

[Rowers Graduate10]

The others have said it all: great progress and great time. You've totally got this! I'm hoping to run 10k for the first time next week too - very exciting 😀

[Buddy34 Graduate10 in reply to Rowers]

Good luck 🤗🤗

[Run46 Graduate10]

Well done Buddy, nearly there...based on this run you're heading for a great time for your 1st 10K too 🏃‍♀️👍
