I have been working through ju-jus 5-10Kand was supposed to do last 4,5 & 9 this week, then 10K next week. This morning I just felt ready to do 10K, weather was perfect, and just went for it. I’m well chuffed with this as at the age of 58 this is the furthest I’ve ever run in my life😀😀😀🏃🏽‍♀️🏃🏽‍♀️🏃🏽‍♀️

Very well done. I did the very same on my first 10K. Was only supposed to run 8.5K, but felt good and went for it. Congratulations. It's a great achievement. Happy running.

Well done! It just felt right for you today! I've also just completed 20k this morning and am very elated. Hope you are very proud! It was such a lovely morning!

What a great achievement, I don’t think I’ll make 20k, but then I said that about 5 & 10!

Ooo there was a typo, I meant 10k! I don't think 20k is ever going to happen!

Love your typo 😉 20k is fantastic especially straight after your 10k run🤗

Fantastic effort, I too skipped the 9k runs🤣 we 58 year olds can show the young ones there is loads of ability in us still. Congratulations. Happy running 🤗

Hello Cloughbut ,

Congratulations again. I just added a Graduate10 badge to your profile. I'm new to this giving out badges thing so there you go. It worked. Well done.

Congratulations on your first 10k, it's a brilliant achievement and you should be feeling suitably chuffed now. I did the same and missed the second 9k and went straight to 10k,if you feel you can, why not, eh?!

Well done again, enjoy that new badge of yours 🏅🥂🍾🎉🎊🥳💪🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️
