Yay! Sue just 2 away from graduation, we went out in the grotty weather today, but it felt good and she's doing very well, she say's she will treat herself to new shoe's when she graduates, I said, why's that? those one's are fine, they're doing you proud, and they only cost £12.99!😁

Yeah be careful with the new shoes Dave. My Mrs got a new pair as a graduation present and I think she is faster than me now.

Which means nothing to her but I am competitive! 😀

Mean husband! How much were your shoes? No seriously, well done Slinky! She deserves the shoes. Graduation round the corner and then Dave and Sue can run off into the sunset together! It must be great to run as a couple (if you're about the same level).

No, she's still slow compared to me, but will improve as she goes on, early days! eventually it'll be good to have her to run with and keep pace with one and other. I'll make sure she gets her new shoe's, I was thinking of a sports watch as well, as she's starting to take interest in her stats😱

Hey! New shoes!!!!! Awright! Slinky is in shopping mode so no messing!

Perfect Graduation gift, just perfect! So, Slinky, just picture those shiny new daps at the end of your final run of C25k. See them gleaming on a rotating pedestal, reclining on a purple velvet cushion, in all their glowing newness, shining bright like a beacon at the end of the run.

Have a fast car ready Dave. To Sweatshop! Foot down! Go! >>>>>>>>>>>>> vrooom!

Make sure we get a photo!

Ha ha slinky has it sussed! Well done Sue, just 2 runs left to go, fantastic! It seems to have gone by very fast. Well done you too Dave, it is great having you there, running with her. It is a really nice thing for you to have done for her. Perhaps you both deserve new trainers. :)

I don't mind really bop, it gets me out for excercise. I was in the middle of working on something when she said she wanted to do the run in between the rain, so I dropped everything and got my running kit on, I enjoy it! Think I'll have to pass on new trainers for me at the moment, I've bought 2 pairs in the last 8 months!😊
