I just did my first 30 minute run through puddles, mud and landslides and loved it! The only witnesses were some blackbirds and a few cows and sheep.

Well done. You must be feeling great. You don't need witnesses - enough to know yourself that you've done it!

Well done. I did the same as you today. Looks as though there are a few of us about to graduate around the same time, all being well. Hoping that if we can start in this weather it will be easy to carry on when its less stormy.

Hi, I hope to run again on Tuesday and Thursday, weather and a slight ache in my right leg permitting, but if its Wednesday & Friday or Wednesday and Saturday it won't be the end of the world. I am getting a bit nervous in case I develop an injury or heavy winter cold which stops me graduating this week.

Good luck to all week 9ers, With a bit of luck and a small amount of dry weather we will all be posting graduation happy dances over the next week.
