Yippee! After a somewhat extended C25k due to injury the first time round, I am pleased to say that I have just completed the last run of W9! After a pretty full-on day at work, running was just what I needed! The pouring rain was beautiful to me today, as I splashed my way through the puddles on the old railway line. I felt so much better than on my last run and even added on a little extra to complete my 5K route, so look out Parkrun, here I come!!
I have to say that this programme is fantastic and this forum just wonderful. Such a supportive place to come and share your triumphs and woes. I have absolutely no doubt now that running will remain part of my life, and (hush) that I am beginning to see myself as a "runner"!
Right, I'm off now to claim that badge....๐๐๐

Well done, Sandra. Isn't it a great feeling? As great as completing C25K is, you've got a whole new world open to you now! What are you going to do? Many people, me included, feel a little aimless when it's finished, as you've suddenly achieved you goal, and you wonder what you're supposed to do now.
Suggestion - get in the Parkrun habit and sign up for a race or two as something to prepare for.
CONGRATULATIONS SANDRA!! that run sounds just the tonic you needed after work! and look at that graduate badge there already! excellent stuff, on to Parkrun next and lots more running adventures!!
Well done you keep going. I went out for a run last night in the rain, this was the 2nd time I had run in it. All I can say is pants & don't like it, could only manage 3 miles as I was overheating with my wet jacket on, so wanted to push on to 4 mile mark.
Very well done indeed graduation and 5k into the bargain I bet you are really buzzing with that !! I admire you for doing it in the rain as I sit here itching to run and watching it pour down outside I don't mind drizzle but not keen to try real heavy rain !! Happy running ! xXx
Many congratulations to you Sandra. Your patience has paid off and it sounds as if you have already become a bit addicted! You are a runner so keep posting and enjoy your badge. It looks great!
