Look out Week 9. I'm coming to get you! Oh my God! I can't believe it! It's nearly over and I made it. Slow and steady but I'm just three runs away from completing C25k. πŸƒπŸ»πŸ’ͺπŸ†

I can't begin to tell you. I'm 53 and very overweight. I run carrying the equivalent of a small child. I run very slowly but the amazing thing is I run. Delighted doesn't cut it. πŸ˜€

Every intention of progressing now from 30mins (3k) to a 5k. I will continue to run three times a week with my group and it doesn't matter how long it takes. I can run!

90 minutes 'til we have you in that cap and gown! I too ran with the equivalent of a small child (held in place with lycra and magic pants)πŸ˜‚ You are doing amazingly and can't wait for your graduation post! (the bubbly is on ice)😊

Aw thanks! Let's just hope the back pain I created yesterday, disappears by Sunday (run 1 of week 9) or you may have to wait for the bubbly).
