So I made it through to the end of the program

!

Here's a selfie with my kelpie who was constantly at my side. I took a hilly route this time since my goal when finishing the nine weeks was to start running up some slopes - thought I'd get a head start on that one

Newly downloaded Run keeper App told me I'm doing 9.5km/hour

Anyway thanks for the encouraging replies to

My posts. I'm going to check out c25k + podcast now

Fantastic, great selfie of the team! Just graduating at any speed is fantastic, I found that my speed has kept naturally improving as each distance I do becomes more achievable. Have you thought about parkrun? Very good way to meet other runners and try new routes too?

Very well done. Congratulations! Good dog too, musn't forget kelpie power 😊

The stepping stones podcasts will do you good. Be sure to run them thoroughly. I run them as they crop up on my shuffle playlist

Well done it's a great feeling isn't it and your time is brilliant. I'm looking forward to running in warm weather but that may be a few months away. My cocker spaniel has been my companion on the C25K and she seems to have enjoyed it as well. At least as soon as I start putting my gear on and her reflective bandana she goes mad. All the best with your next challenge.
