Getting a graduate badge for doing my 10K run last September?

Hi everyone. I hope that this post reaches everyone ok, or ok as possible with what's going on, and that this message reaches you guys ok too.

I was just wondering whether it might be possible to get a graduate badge as I managed to do a 10K run back in September, as I did a sponsored run raising money for the Alzheimer's Society.

It's just that I was raising money in memory of my Nana, who had vascular dementia who passed away on the 13th of February 2020.

I think I managed to do my run in just over an hour and 10 minutes which I was really pleased about considering I'd had trouble with my training as I didn't manage to do as much training as I would have liked to have done before my run.

It's just that it took me a while to start training again for my run as I had to stop training for my run when I injured my right knee, as I was meant to do my run this time last year before I had to pull out and reschedule my 10K run.

I was really gutted at the time that I had to give up my place on my Air Run 10K, my original 10K run but I'm really glad I still did it in the end, as the other people I was running with were really supportive.

The people cheering us runners on were really supportive too, as it was really nice hearing people calling out my name as I was going around the course.

I've been thinking about maybe doing a half marathon, although I know I'd need to start getting into the habit of running again and building up my fitness levels before starting training for another run as I've not really done any running since doing my run at the beginning of September last year.

I hope everything's ok, or ok as possible with what's going on, and that I get to hear back from you soon.

Take care and stay safe everyone.

With lots of best wishes from Jonathan.
