W9R3 - graduation!

[H25k]

Lovely sunny day to do my graduation run. I carried on through the walk section and on to the beginning of the W8 podcast (because of going on a longer route), so got to hear You and Julie and what I call the Take That song ("I won't let you fall ...") twice!! Rather fitting as these are now among my favourites, well they stick in my head anyway. Started 7 December so what with Xmas and a bit of illness really pleased to finish in 11 weeks. Thanks to everyone who posts - I enjoy reading them even if I don't post/respond much myself. Next goals - parkrun and speeding up to get closer to 5k in 30 mins.

You and Julie is forever fixed in your brain now. LOL

I quite enjoyed re-hearing it after injuring myself and having to repeat earlier runs. I'd really missed it! Well done on Graduating! Happy running

Pakruns are free 5k runs organised every Saturday in parks or similar across the country. They're great, i completed my second this morning knocking 2.5mins off my previous time! Every1's so friendly and relaxed and supportive. Its just nice getting out there and running with a group Def got the bug for them

As littlehelen says, Parkrun is free and great fun and I don't know anyone who has taken part who doesn't catch the bug. They take place all over the UK and abroad too. Have a look at parkrun.org.uk/ and see if there is one near you. A highly recommended way to start your weekend.

Earworms.............make me shudder to think of them, but if you like them, great. Congratulations on graduation, fellow runner.
