10k done (badge claimed below)

[RunByTheSea64]

It's my 6 month runniversary today - 2nd Jan was the start of my C25K journey, when I had little expectation of getting past 30 seconds running, as it had never been something I had EVER wanted or tried to do! I've been running 3 days a week since then, using various NRC runs and parkrun, and JJ Magic Plan. When I woke up early this morning I felt that today was the day to attempt my 1st 10k. Very pleased to complete it with no issues. I can recommend the NRC '10k run' with Coach Bennett - full of visualisation and inspiration 🙂👍🏃‍♀️

Congratulations 👏👏👏 the badge looks good too

[RunByTheSea64 Graduate10 in reply to SueAppleRun]

Thanks, I've just noticed you have 60 mins AND 10k badges! I didn't know you could have both, I might have to ask.....😂

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to RunByTheSea64]

I didn't realise either, I've not noticed before 😂

[MissUnderstanding Administrator Graduate10 in reply to RunByTheSea64]

It was an update from the site a little while ago! For some reason, some posters seem to have kept every badge they were ever awarded! I can give you both of you want both!! SueAppleRun if you only want one I can fix that too!

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to MissUnderstanding]

I got quite excited when I saw both just puzzled, I think it's nice to have both thanks 😁

Well deserved
