Hi there, hoping I can claim my 10K badge ? Delighted to have run this slightly unplanned 10K.

For reasons best known to no one !, 🙄🤷🏼‍♀️ At 5K I decided to stop and restart my tracking on the Garmin.

I think I was trying to be psychologically clever but it backfired in terms of the stats.🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

I’ve managed to merge the two 5ks on the Garmin website so I at least have a record and a recorded time .

These are the stats for the 2 consecutive runs . Starting at 6:37 am running for approx 42mins and run 2 starting at 07:19 am lasting approx 40 mins , so I didn’t actually stop 👌🏃🏻‍♀️🙂

So please may I have a badge ? 🙏🙏

I’m doing the 10km plan but for my week 5 8km run I went a bit further in order to hit the 60 minute mark, 8:35km done in 1:00 exactly! Am I eligible for a 60 min badge until I hopefully earn my 10km in a few weeks? Thanks!

[damienair Administrator in reply to mancrunner1]

Hello. I am so sorry. I missed your post completely. I must have had loads of other alerts and missed yours. Of course, Congratulations and really well done. New 60 minute badge for you. Happy running on your way to 10K.

[mancrunner1 Graduate10 in reply to damienair]

Thank you! Hopefully I’ll be switching over in two weeks!

Excellent and new badge for you. Very well done.

[JAT58 Graduate10]

I’m on week 3 of the 10k plan. Today I set off with the intention of running 4 or 5k, but I felt good so I kept going and ran for just over an hour. My pace is slow, I ran 6.6k, but that’s the furthest I’ve run so I’m very happy with that.

Can I claim my 60 minute badge please, and I’ll keep working towards 10k!

Good morning

I completed my first ever 10k last week and the feeling was amazing - I honestly felt on top of the world!! I didn’t put any pressure on myself I just kept going and just kept enjoying!

I’m even more excited now I’ve remembered to claim my badge - is this still ok as it was last week?

So looking forward to seeing it and so looking forward to running another working on reducing my time now!

Hi.Did my first 10k a couple of days ago and would love to claim my 10k badge. Just in time for my 71st birthday in a couple of weeks time.

I hadn't expected to do the 10k as I was only going our for a 5k but felt so good I just pushed on and did 10 without any problems.

Very happy to have finally got there.
