I’ve amazed myself again, I keep reminding myself that when I started C25K last May, my aim was just to run 3 times a week and not worry how far or fast. Graduation and then finally achieving 5k was a real celebration but 10k was something I thought was definitely out of my reach and then.... after loosely following Ju Ju’s magic plan I ran a full 10k, still in shock!

Well done! A first 10k is really special and you should just enjoy it, with no thought of "what shall I do next?".... for the rest of this week anyway 😊

Congratuations on reaching 10k. I was another May 2019 Couch to 5K starter. Ran my first timed 10k last month and now working towards running my first half marathon. Clearly addicted to this running lark....

NewtsandfrogsGraduate10 in reply toEEPaul

Wow, half marathon, that’s a challenge too far even for my imagination right now, but you’re right running is addictive. Best of luck, it’ll be a full marathon in no time at all!!
