W9r2 done. Excited and looking forward to graduating. This was the first morning run I have done and it wasn't too bad. Even though I managed to muck up the app halfway through and didn't have the time checks I got there.

Been thinking about what happens next. My aim for September 2017 (not this year) is the Great North Run. Can anyone recommend a next step app or programme for after c25k. I guess the next step up is 10k. I would prefer not to run intervals as I find these a distraction for me breathing pattern ( I am asthmatic).

Any advice welcome.

Ha, easter! I had a real wake up call last run as I stayed at the gym and swam and saunaed after. I looked in the mirror and one of the ribena berries was looking back. I had no idea that I looked liked that after a run. I would like to not have a red face and that might come with runs getting easier!

When are you doing your last run sparky66?
