Well I graduated this morning with a 5k in 39 minutes – feeling pretty chuffed and proud of myself right now! I have loved everything about C25k it has been awesome – you just keep plugging away and before you know it it's graduation day! I will definitely still be looking at this forum every day as it has helped me so much on my journey. Onwards and upwards now – in nine weeks time I hope to be able to post that I have made it to 10k!

Congratulations! Those weeks do go by quickly.
They certainly do! I'm kind of sad to be saying goodbye to Laura but on the other hand I'm looking forward to playing my own music!
When you feel you can tackle even worse music, try the c25k+ podcasts. They're here on this site but they will have you looking back fondly on the c25k music. There are 3: stepping stones, speed and stamina with Laura talking you through them.
Congratulations!!

Well done
Brilliant that you ran on to 5k too, it's such a good feeling knowing you can do it
I took Laura and the week 9 podcast out for a couple of weeks post-grad! I got used to the reggae track near the end cheering me up!
Good luck with the journey to 10k, it's not as scary as 0-5k, just remember slow and steady
Well done , congratulations on your graduation and 5k 😊
Build up gradually to that 10k , the usual increase is approx 10% of your weekly km's or time
