Wow! I am amazed astounded proud deshevelled exhausted and boy do i hurt! I completed the last run of the programme tonight but not was it tough in this heat! I nearly vomited at the end- I really did struggle I thought I would give up but I didn't! Wow! My steps converter days I'm doing 5k but I don't think that's right but hey it doesn't matter! Now I have to concentrate on consolidating what I've achieved so far and see how I progress! I have to say I couldn't have done it without all your support (or my baseball cap shock absorbers and mint imperials!) So from the bottom of my heart thank you so very much! I never thoughti could do it but you madd me believe that i could! I am so grateful and super chuffed! What next? How do i graduate? Can i keep running using week 9? Im not sure im ready to fly solo! Woohoo im a runner (well sort of! More a work in progress! πŸ˜†) πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸ…πŸ₯‚πŸΎ

You are most definitely a runner Pancakes. I couldn’t face running solo when I first graduated and used Week 9 podcast for a couple of weeks, then used the C25K+ podcasts a couple of times before weaning myself onto real music and running unprompted.

You can just enjoy running for running’s sake.

Congratulations

Congratulations pancakes!

We all knew that you could do it and that you would do it.

For post graduation running, I have got a route nearly 5k planned out and I'm going to stick with that until I can speed up a bit, then maybe look at a longer route.

Good luck.
