W9 R3 complete! Graduated!

I can't believe it! This was the toughest run of the entire lot, and if it hadn't been THIS run, I'd have probably walked a couple of minutes in the middle. I set off too fast, which made everything but the first five minutes so tough, and the heat didn't help much either (looking for excuses, wink wink!) But I ran 30 minutes without stopping and I'm so pleased for this!

I guess the C25k program is complete, got to work on the 5k distance now!

:D indeed! I normally do early morning runs, so a 6pm was different but I'm so pleased I got it done. Well done!

Thanks! I've been really lucky with the weather, it's only rained in one of my runs in 9 weeks! I try to stick to early morning runs for the heat, but I wanted to get it in today!
