[Teresafaith]

After my 8k last week i wanted to try for 9k today- and the sun and woodland kept me out of the cold winds- so I just kept going!- My first 10K- YIPPEEEE!- followed by a 4k walk home 🤸🤪😱- got a much needed dose of Vitamin D en -route!! Well proud!

[Teresafaith Graduate10 in reply to Peter44]

Are you struggling - in snow?

[Peter44 Graduate10 in reply to Teresafaith]

Bit of everything at the moment, trying to rest, with a few niggles, snow today/tonight, plus alot going on with my mum ☹ might try and get out tomorrow, if not too slippy.

[Teresafaith Graduate10 in reply to Peter44]

Feel for you right now- don't risk injury if it's dangerous out there.

[Peter44 Graduate10 in reply to Teresafaith]

Thanks ☺

[Teresafaith Graduate10 in reply to SueAppleRun]

The vitamin D is great stuff- it'll keep me going till the Spring!

[Teresafaith Graduate10 in reply to 9weeks2Run]

Thank you, take it easy.

[Sandraj39 Graduate10]

Well done on your first 10k!😀👏 I always say once you hit 8k, you can run 10!🙂

[Teresafaith Graduate10 in reply to Sandraj39]

Yes, when I did the 8k last week, I just knew 10k was manageable - glad I got there today.

[Sandraj39 Graduate10 in reply to Teresafaith]

...such a good feeling!😀👍

[Grannyhugs Graduate10]

Congratulations, I hope it's the 1st of many happy 10k runs for you. 🤗

[Teresafaith Graduate10 in reply to Grannyhugs]

Thank you- I'm looking forward to them becoming the 'norm' !

[Grannyhugs Graduate10 in reply to Teresafaith]

And they can be if you want them to be. Take it slow and build up to more regular 10ks then progress from there. Everything is possible at the right speed.

[Teresafaith Graduate10 in reply to Grannyhugs]

I've certainly learned that on my progress through C25K and into 10k, I keep my pace slow and extend my runs just once a week and it's worked for me.

[Indielass00]

Fantastic and well done!!! 😀

[LottieMW Ambassador]

Congratulations on your 10.6k! Don’t forget to consolidate that for a few weeks before extending your distance any further. Celebrate in style. 🥳 🎉

[Teresafaith Graduate10 in reply to Dexy5]

Thank you - I certainly won't be running any further than that for quite a while yet!🥴
