Normally about 3.5km; sometimes I worry about how slow I am but then I think of all you lot on here telling me slow and steady; it's all about the times X

Hi Feelingsilly

I run on a treadmill so graduation run will be the same. Think after I've graduated I'll brave the outside world X

I remember you saying that before now, silly me! Running is running, it doesn't matter where, you don't need to brave anything, inside or outside its all the same result! πŸƒπŸΌπŸƒπŸΌ

Thanks Feelingsilly.

Never ever thought I'd get to run for 30 mins so I'm just really over the moon that I can πŸ˜€

I'm trying to decide what to do after graduation. Will be trying out some of the 5k+ podcasts as I need a focus and a structured program for me to follow works for me. I've come this far there's no way I want it to stop afterwards. Especially as I've already treated myself to a gorgeous new pair of running shoes! 😊
