So close now I can almost taste it ...

Successfully completed W9R2 this morning. Have come to the conclusion I must be built for distance, not speed! I don't seem to get any faster but I am managing to increase my distance all the time (extended today's run by a couple of minutes), so I must be doing something right! (Though still only running just over 3.5k.) Aches and pains seem to have sorted themselves out, so it looks as if I'm on course to graduate (fingers, and everything else, crossed!) on Monday when there are less people about and I get the paths and pavements almost to myself. Have waited a long time for this, so bring it on!!

Oh your all ready for the final run , may it be a good one , all the best .

[Hennith Graduate in reply to Rockette]

Thanks Rockette! (Nice badge!) Well it won't be as fast as yours, but hopefully it will be fun.

[Hennith Graduate in reply to joolsp]

Thanks joolsp, I'll certainly give it my best shot. Fingers crossed for a sunny day!

Enjoy the last run and look forward to getting your graduation badge Have you plans for post grad runs

[Hennith Graduate in reply to Fitfor60]

Thank you! I think I'll just be working towards getting 5k under my belt to start with. The biggest challenge will be keeping going throughout the winter I fear.

[ReyC Graduate]

well done Hennith! Just relax and enjoy it, you know you can do it and any improvements on distance/time can come later. looking forward to your grad post!

[Hennith Graduate in reply to ReyC]

Thanks ReyC. Yes, I felt really strong on yesterday's run, so I do know I can do it now, and that feels good!

[Jenwrenarm Graduate]

Good luck with that graduation run Hennith. Youre doing brilliant!

[Hennith Graduate in reply to Jenwrenarm]

Thank you! And yours can't be too far off can it?

[Fiwini Graduate]

Go Hennith Go!

[Hennith Graduate in reply to Fiwini]

Will do my best!!

[IannodaTruffe Mentor]

Try to set up everything to make your grad run memorable-mine was a slog on a Friday evening after a hard week at work and too much to eat, making it one that I would have forgotten had it not been so significant. Good luck. You've worked hard for this, enjoy it.

[Hennith Graduate]

Thank you, yes I'll hopefully have had a restful weekend beforehand and will have my favourite paths almost to myself. Will it be too much to hope the sun shines too?!
