Week 9 - One more run to graduation

7 Replies

Hi all.

I have dragged my 45 year old wobbly body through near 9 weeks of walking/running and have enjoyed almost every second of it.

Having ignored Laura a little i have already run 3 parkruns (closing in on a 30 min 5K), and have this dilemma.

What to do for my graduation run on Monday evening?

Looking for ideas/inspiration.

If you are regularly running 5ks I’d run another. Pick your favourite route and savour it. Perhaps go “naked” - no headphones just your watch.

Whatever you do, enjoy it.

Wow you are doing well. I celebrated with an ice cream 🍦. Whatever you do, you must take a photo and post it 😎☀️😃

Like the idea of running "naked" & seeing where it takes me.

I hate having my photo taken so when i finish it will be a monumental moment in more ways than one.

Look out for a hot/sweaty/red face/out of breath photo on Monday eve.

Well done crey! One more run for graduation! 😁

I drove to a local Water Park to run for the first time today. It had such amazing views. It’s definitely my favourite so far. I’ve also seen some beautiful photos from runners who have a canal nearby on the forum. That’s what inspired me to go to the water park. I hope you find the perfect spot to mark the occasion! ❤️
