At last, I've actually just this minute completed the last run of week 9 πŸ˜„. It's taken me 13 months to get here, and don't it feeeel good! I haven't quite got to the 5k, but not far off, I did 4.8, so feelin' a tiny bit chuffed. Will obviously still continue three runs a week, still unsure which podcast to go for, but two clear days rest now for this old lady (58 this year πŸ˜•) Happy Easter Bunnies y'all.

Absolutely fabulous! The fact it's taken you 13 months shows your determination and commitment. Many people would have given up so hats off to you for sticking with it. Don't worry about getting to 5K. You've run continuously for 30 minutes three times and so have earned your graduate badge. Now you can just run because you can!Β
