Wow! Just wow... well done. Happy running.

Brilliant well done ! I can sense a big cheesy grin on your face from here !

Have you got a cunning plan for what you are going to do next ?

Congratulations! ☺

Now is the key time for going steady! Proceed with caution and develop your running slowly and carefully. Your body has to grow stronger, which takes quite some time. The journey to 10k is proper good fun 😊

Enjoy πŸ˜ƒ

Thank you everyone - My plan now is to carry on with 3 runs a week - 2 x 30 mins and then a longer one at the weekend to gradually build up my distance. I had only intended to do 5.5k on Sunday but found myself running on just because I could. Will stick to a more gradual progression in future as I don't want any injuries!

I'm still a bit of a slowcoach but I'm hopeful my pace will improve with time.

Thank you again you lovely lot for all your support and advice - I love this forum x
