It took about 12 weeks but I got there in the end. This morning’s graduation run was more of a mental challenge than a physical one. In the back of my mind there was always the fear that something was going to go wrong.
Thanks to everybody here for the encouraging words and advice throughout the programme.
To anybody just starting this adventure, you may be thinking, like I was 3 months ago ago, can I do this? Well, yes you can!
So what next? Definitely going to keep this up but I need another goal to aim for, so now I’m going to follow Ju-Ju’s 10K plan.

Congratulations! Now comes the difficult bit 😂😈 (I'm evil, aren't I?). Keeping it up without having a programme to follow, motivating yourself to go out without a voice in your ear telling you what to do. I would consolidate a bit first before moving on to 10k. Ju-Ju's plan is brilliant and not quite so brutal as some, but experiment a bit first. Try the c25k+ podcasts and run around a bit. I know ramping up to 10k immediately after finishing the programme was a bit much for me (although I was naughty and did it after 6 weeks. Took me another 3 months to do it again though!)
