C25K Grad, 10k Newbie

[GigglyBFC]

Hi 🙋🏻‍♂️ A new C25k Graduate here and very chuffed I completed it 😀 Unbelievably I’m looking to keep running and go faster and longer. I’ve started off with the podcasts.apple.com/gb/podca... and actually had an easier run this morning 👍🏻

Well done on your C25k graduation. Keep it going building it up slowly 👏😀

Read the bumpf on Consolidation before moving up in distance. Not compulsory, but parent advisory.

Thanks for the advice, I had a good read and realised I need to devise a plan!

Congratulations on your C25K graduation and welcome! This is a really supportive forum, just like the C25K. Good luck with the next stage of your running journey, looking forward to reading your updates! 😃

Thanks! I’m having a little running rest as I have a painful left foot but I’m lucky to have a physio appointment next Tuesday so hope to be fixed quickly 🤞🏻 Running slower keeping my heart rate below 150 is my next challenge 😀 Yoga for the time being though... 👍🏻

I've been having foot trouble on and off for a few months now, slow running definitely helps. It's great that you've been able to get a physio appointment so quickly, they'll sort you out 👍

HR zone running was a revelation after I graduated from C25K, it made such a difference to everything, from enjoyment to stamina. That's when I started to believe I could reach longer distances. Hope you enjoy it when you're back out there! For the time being, enjoy your yoga 🧘‍♂️😃
