W9R3 done!! Just need that good luck elsewhere too...

I did it! Just did my final 30 minute run. It was hard - my hardest run for a while, actually, with a stitch suddenly rearing its head and very sore calves. I tried a new route and realised the whole thing was gently uphill which was unexpected but I pushed through. I had wild hopes that I might get back from my graduation run to good news about a job I applied for but no such luck - it would have been a bit too good to be true I guess!

Congratulations! You are now strong enough to push through 30 minutes of running even on bad days! What an accomplishment!

Good luck on the job hunt!

Well done on graduating! :) A new route, with unexpected uphills (or single long uphill!) is definitely a challenge, so fantastic that you didn't let it stop you!

Good luck with the job hunt too...

Brilliant news! And fabulous that you took the inclines in your stride too.

Massive 🍸🎉CONGRATULATIONS 🎉🍸

Now you do have a couple of jobs lined up.. firstly, go grab your super-shiny graduate badge. Then it's up the podium steps to tumultuous applause and once that's done you can let your hair down, relax and paaartaaaay! 😊😊
