Fantastic news, Lisa and a massive well done. Soooo close to the 5k in 30 minutes but it's still a great achievement and I'm sure that magic 5k in 30 minutes will be achieved very soon
Thanks Paul xxx will now be bursting to whoop the 5k in 30mins xx
Well done Lisa! You have every right to be VERY proud of yourself right now! Happy running in the future... you can slowly work on pace if you want to... don't feel pressured to though!
Brilliant. Well done Lisa, sounds like a cracking run. No wonder you feel great. And you DID cover more than 5k - who says it has to be all running? Got to get your badge now!
Wahay Lisa! Lisa! Lisa! Lisa! Chanting now and I've done a celebratory dance for you. The dog has joined in as well and he is howling for you. I raise my cuppa tea to you to toast your success. So, well then, how does that feel? Good ey? You have to treat yourself to something new now. A new pair of shoes or running pants etc.
By the way have you applied for your badge??? I wanna see what it looks like on.
I don't know - I'm doing a 10k charity run on monday (signing up for that was what brought me to c25k in the first place), but obviously I'm not going to be able to run the full 10k this time! I'm hoping to jog a bit and walk a bit to get me over the finish line. I like the idea of improving 5k time in the short term (I couldn't get any slower). What are your plans?
"let's all do the conga, let's all do the conga, daaa da da da!! da da daaaaa da!!!"
KAboom! You did it. Well done Lisa. Welcome to the graduate club. There's an admin fee of £100,000 which should be paid directly into my account (details to follow) and an initiation ceremony which involves a barrel of olive oil, a spruce twig and a rub down with a "chammy" leather!
Hey, very very well done Lisa!! Graduating and doing it in a cracking time too!! AND Ullyrunner is right, you did do 5k if you include your warm up/cool down walks.
So what's next matey? Speed? Distance? Endurance? Celebratory glass of wine? Graduation present? Whatever you choose, hope it's as much fun as the past 9weeks have been. Good luck Sweetie and many many congratulations xxx
Awwww my lovely AncientMum xxx I will celebrate in style with chocolate & G & T xxx I'm thinking of trying for 10K but will see how it goes. Need to crack the 5K in 30 mins I think. What are your plans?
Way to go, Lisa!!! But what's this about last run......you've only just started!!! Congratulations. I would recommend extending one run per week to get towards your 10k goal and it will help you with your speed for 5k.
It's Graduation City today! Well done to you! You're like a skinny cat's whisker away from 5 in 30 ..... i bow humbly and am deeply awed and inspired once again!
Congratulations Lisa - graduating with such a good distance/time is awesome - no wonder you are considering 10k next!!. Enjoy that shiny new badge next to your name : )
Well done JL, that is brilliant! Hopefully joining you on Friday, although I've just had a massive roast dinner and Christmas pudding (don't ask) so I expect I will have a coronary on my W9R2 tomorrow morning! Don't disappear and keep us up to date with your progress
Yeeeeaaah! JustLisa you've done it! Fan*******tastic! There's nothing like that graduation feeling so enjoy it and then you're ready to continue the journey.
Congratulations! Glad you did it and great to see you got the graduate badge. I'm still out on an injury break -- two weeks now. Not sure where I'll have to pick up when I return but I will return for sure and in the meantime I'm really missing running. Hope you're celebrating!
Oh vjscadence I hope the injury heals FAST!!!! Make sure you're better before you nail the rest of the programme xxx I'll be looking for your updates xxxx
