Thanks to advice given today public and private I've decided not to be hard on myself. I'm staying away from PR for a while and going to run on my own with no pressure and for pleasure. I'm running for me,myself&I

If you are running for other people, then there's something wrong.

I am running for myself - I would not have worked so hard for 12 weeks otherwise ... I was was just saying I will run on my own and not put myself under the pressure of running with other people for a while . Thanks to everyone else who HAS encouraged me

It sounds like you took my comment negatively.......which is not how it was intended...... keep running, keep smiling.

Running for pleasure! What a wonderful plan, sounds like a sensible idea. I think flexibility once I finished C25K has been a great thing for me. I graduated about a year ago now. If I am running in the countryside, I stop and admire the view because I want to. I stop and stroke a friendly dog too and I like to take a photo or two. As long as I run regularly (4 times a week right now) I feel quite satisfied and I run at a comfortable pace too. Good for you!
