Week 9 run 2 completed today, I'm so close!

Recommendations for what to do after graduation? Has anyone moved onto to the 10k app?

Yes, so very close, how exciting!

I agree with Tbae, consolidate, carry on with 3 runs a week for a while, perhaps try different routes so you don't give bored.

... and perhaps try Parkrun, that gives you something to focus on.

Then when you feel ready try Ju-ju's 10k plan.

You're doing brilliantly ... Good luck with run 3!

Happy running!

Well done on your progress.

You will hopefully find this piece about post C25K running helpful healthunlocked.com/couchto5...

Well done.. the badge is waiting...

Consolidation is what we advise..lots of it. Shorter runs, longer runs, always a 30 minute in there somewhere... new routes too... then maybe try the C25K+ podcasts, which are all about the new disciplines in our running... they are challenging.

Then check this post out...loads of ideas there. But first get to that podium :)

Woohoo!! So close!!! You can see the other side now!

I was just doing my own thing mixing road and trail extending time/distance as I went. My last run was a very fun but muddy 5.4 mile which took me an hour, well off my usual pace of about 10.5mins/mile. My current goal is to run to my friends new house cross country in an hour. She's 6 miles away.

I don't have any desire to run any organised things for the moment. I just want to keep fit and have fun!

I'd say just keep up the 3x week for a bit and see what you fancy πŸ‘πŸ˜‰

Not what you're looking for?
