Oh my days. Is this even real? GUYS THIS CAN'T BE REAL.
I started this January 13th and less than two months later here we are. Back then the one minute runs were so so hard and now look. GUYS I GRADUATED.
I feel like I'm happier with this than I will be when I actually graduate from university.
Just want to say a massive massive thank you to all you guys on here for your posts, comments, inspiration and support.
I've written a post about the last month of c25k on my year abroad blog if any of you fancy reading any more rambles haha geordieabroadie.blogspot.co...
OH MY GOD I GRADUATED I DID IT THIS IS REAL I LOVE YOU ALL

Wow!! Well done Katy!!! I am sure you will feel loads of benefits from running. The difficult bit is to maintain the habit, but now you know you can do things that you never believed you could, that won't be a problem.
Aw man seeing Geordie written down makes my heart sing. I just watched 3 episodes of 'Tales from Northumberland' and cried haha running helps with homesickness?
Well done! You have given me encouragement because I found the one minute runs hard. I have just finished week 3 and am now wondering how in the world I am going to run for 5 minutes all in one go next week. Thanks for the inspiration!
Oh well done Katy!!!! You're a star!!! I bet that feels a bit of all right doesn't it! Are you partying the night away then? Or was it early to bed with a mug of cocoa
thanks so much misswobble! No I have to give a presentation at uni tomorrow so I treated myself to 3 episodes of 'Tales from Northumberland' on ITVPlayer SUCH A GOOD FEELING WOOHOO
Oh yeah. I see it now. It wasn't there a minute ago was it. My word, it does look proper posh that does
Well done Katy. You did really well. Keep on running wont; you. You should run down that marvellous path in Alicante. That wavy pattern one that's on all the brochures
Thanks so much Definitely gonna keep going, it's so fab. Oh yeah the Explanada! That's right next door to where I run now actually so I can make my route longer and go down there fab fab fab
I was checking Alicante out as my friend has bought a place there very recently and she has invited me out there, so I did a quick google and noticed that lovely running route. It's probably heaving with runners all the while. I the tourists can't get a look-in. Ha ha
Anyway missus, you should be in bed if you have a presentation to do in the morning. I'm off to get me late night cuppa and the Kindle struck up as I'm reading Running Like a Girl. That's a good one for you to read as it's about a young lass and where running takes her.
Bravo! Yes, it is a bit special - but of course it is a bit more compact and intense than the undergraduate experience, so enjoy that graduation when it comes too.
What are you going to do next with your running? Choose your own tunes/podcasts? Stay with Laura and try the NHS C25k+? Just keep running and do some strength and flexibility work to support it? Rule the world?
Haha thanks GoogleMe. I graduate for real next July after a 4 year course and if it feels as good as c25k did then I'll be one happy girl!
Well for this I ran with my app and my own music together so I think I will use my music with RunKeeper - it tells you as each 5 minute has passed so it's like Laura but with less support. I'll see how it goes without her on Saturday and if I don't like it I'll try the + podcast. Rule the world is definitely on the list.
Well done ! Fantastic ! Running on a beach sounds fabulous. It will give me something to think about when I'm running along the main road next week! Your could always run alongside the broad at UEA…..
Julia (UEA graduate more years ago than I care to admit)
Katy, what can I say. YOU GRADUATED GIRL a big well done and congratulations from me. Isn't the feeling absolutely fantastic? I'm really pleased for you and proud you got off the couch and did the course.
Your right about uni as well. This is a much better pass as you did it all yourself so a big big PASS WITH DISTINCTION goes to you keep it up now J
Followed you Katie just a few decades behind ! Off to claim my badge shortly...Really well done for everything you're doing this year. I like to think that every graduation marks a new perspective
Well Done Katy - I remember you 8 weeks ago just starting out - and here you are, gone and done it. Congrats - be an inspiration to everyone else at uni and abroad. Where are you going btw?
Thanks so much Buffy! Already got a few pals downloading the app and joining in which is great. I'm from Newcastle, study in Norwich and am on my year abroad in Alicante, south coast of Spain!
