Isn't it just crazy looking back and seeing how far you've come?! 5k already on W8 is great, well done! Go steady for those last few runs to ensure that you don't get injured before graduation and enjoy those last two weeks!

Brilliant! I always think I'll press on the get to 5k but then I'm usually so exhausted by the time Laura says that's it that I stop and all my good intentions disappear!

Very good ! You sure can...
