Week 9 Run3 finally completed

Managed to get out this lunchtime and go for the last run of week 9. Sun was beating down and I think I smiled for nearly all the way, even the dreaded up hill final 500m. So it has taken me around 5 months to complete the program with some big breaks between some runs due to holidays, colds and general I can't be botherdness. But I must say, I have loved every one of the 27 outings and have surprised myself with how much I enjoy running, even on my own. Thank you for your support and motivation, I don't think I would have stuck with it otherwise. Will now try and do 5km runs twice a week and then think about increasing distance slowly. May I have my graduation badge please? Thank you!!
