Well just done run 1 week 8, I can't believe I have run for a full 28 mins. I also did my first run in public, I was running around a tennis court before but today decided to run on the road. I couldn't believe the distance I had covered, totally underestimated it. Can't wait for run 2.

Well done Vendgirl -what a lovely surprise to discover you're better than you thought. Just the sort of confidence boost you want to carry you through to graduation in style.

I think running on the road will be more fun than round and round a tennis a tennis court. You are nearly there, enjoy

Once you can do 25 minutes, you are set for graduation, it is just a small increase with repeats to build up stamina! Fantastic achievement, very well done

Great work. I think you'll find road running inspiring, so many routes to plan, so much to see.
