W9R3 Completed!

Just completed C25K in 5 weeks. I have just ran/walked my final run outside, I usually run on a treadmill. Actually completed 4.5k in 37 mins which I’m pretty proud of. Found I couldn’t run for the full 30mins as I found I was running faster. Therefore I needed to walk bits. So happy I started this plan and I would never have thought I’d would say this 5 weeks ago, but I’m actually enjoying running. Good luck to everyone still on this plan, you can do it!

Just out of interest...which weeks did you skip or did you run every night?

I ran nearly every day. Think I only took a few days off. Did the 3 runs this week.

Congratulations on your graduation fellow runner.

You are obviously a maverick, ignoring the advice to have at least one rest day between runs, but do take care. Doing too much too soon is a sadly recurring theme of this forum.

Take care.
