Week 9 run 3 a muddy graduation woo hoo

This morning was a beautiful morning. There was a lovely sunrise to cheer me on my way. After the road run on Wednesday evening (which my knees are still complaining about) I was up early to run in the fields. It wasn't my fastest run. 7 minutes in and I was just getting into my stride when I hit the mud. From then on it was like running in treacle. I’d picked up extra weight!!

My graduation trophy is my mud caked trainers and a well done kiss from my husband.

I did it. I met the challenge and completed it. Next stop a Parkrun.

What a great graduation, running in the fields at dawn! Something I could never hear myself saying before all this running malarkey, I don't expect you thought that would be your graduation run either! It just fantastic, what c25k does for us. You've done an amazing job, well done! :)

Fantabulous achievement and just think, when you run your Parkrun, it will potentially feel easier as the mud will be elsewhere! (Unless you’ve picked a muddy run of course!)

Lovely, WELL DONE :)

Enjoy your running Graduate
