I did it, I’ve run the last week. Not only that but suddenly was able to do 5K in 30mins! My running buddy & I decided to run a flatter route to see if it made a difference time-wise. Normally our cross country routes are a bit hilly, but pretty all the same, distance in 30mins is 4.5K. So flatter route (streets) made a big difference, but we’re returning to the nicer routes. I have found the support & encouragement on this forum amazing, without which the programme could have been harder 😊
W9R3 - amazing last run!: I did it, I’ve run the... - Couch to 5K
W9R3 - amazing last run!

Congratulations Maybe! Enjoy the moment 😀🏃♂️🏃♀️🎉🍾🏅
Well done on completing course and your speed. Nowhere near that yet. Took my new graduation trainers out for their first run today. Only 3k cos I didn’t want blisters. Thinking just thinking of park run at Memorial Park Saturday
I know two Helens from Kate’s couch to 5k and her improvers. I don’t do Monday improvers as that’s my yoga time

The Helen I know is very tall and graduated beginning of June I think?
