Whoop whoop! W9R3 is done and I’m all graduated. So what did everyone do next? Kinda thinking I’ll carry on using the week 9 runs on the app to continue with 30 min runs until I’m covering 5k in distance - does this sound like a reasonable thing to do? I’m covering 4.3km in 30 mins at the moment so hoping I should be able to get up 5k in the next few weeks

well done and congratulations, yes you could carry on using the 30 min runs or you could try running that bit longer to get to 5k

Thanks and good luck for your final run tomorrow. What 5 to 10k app have you downloaded, I’d be interested in that myself in a few weeks

It's the Active 10k app for Android - it works you from 5k to 10k in another 9 weeks - technically I should be running 10k just in time for Christmas - we shall see!
