I've only been and gone and done it !!! Week 9 run 3 ! Found an extra 2 mins and the lady announced 4km . I am delighted with myself ......I look back 9 weeks when this seemed a long way off, those knees, that breathing! The highs , the lows ! I have signed up to the BHF marathon in a month for May and tomorrow intend to sign up for the Brighton 10k next April . What has happened to me ? At this rate I'll be selling the couch soon.

Thank you so so much for all the support this forum gives ........it made me believe it was possible . I can run !!!!!! I WILL continue to run .

How do I've get my nice shiny badge .....can't wait for the party.

Wahey, congratulations AP! What a feeling. And having future plans keeps you motivated. I'm sure the resident party planner will be along soon, probably still blowing up balloons! 👏

Well done... did my second parkrun this morning while listening to week 9-2... so hopefully I'll be joining the party on Monday.. when I'll also turn 51.... arghhhhh... and I still haven't decided what I want to be yet! Still I reckon i am fitter at 51 than I was at 41!

Congrats John
