GRADUATION!

[bronwynr]

I’m so so so happy to have graduated Couch to 5K. I have kept up lurking on this forum and I never truly believed that I would be a person to be posting something like this.

I did every run with my little dog Daisy (she’s only 1 and we rescued her last October) so everyone - dogs are amazing for running cause they keep ya going!

And I live in an extremely hilly area so it’s been... intense. I haven’t reached 5K in 30 minutes yet but I’m so proud of myself. And I’m proud of anyone else doing Couch to 5k.

You can do it! Go slow, go steady, do anything to make sure you don’t stop

To add, I also run with my dog! A lovely companion to share my time with. My husband is far too fit to run with - I’d literally be left like a 🐌 in the dust! 😅

Thank you! Yes that’s the thing dogs don’t judge x

Well done I run with my dog but not when it’s warm

[bronwynr Graduate in reply to Big_maz]

I have two dogs one’s a black border collie and she loves to run, but it’s just not possible in this weather I think she gets jealous of the other! But in the winter the little one can barely go outside so I suppose they’re equal x

[cheekychipmunks Graduate in reply to Big_maz]

I go out early and since I’m only snailing, my Lab has no issues. I wouldn’t take her out in the heat. ❤️

Thank you! I think the weather has really been helping people get out (which is great as long as they wear sunscreen and keep hydrated 👌)

[Manxmezzo Graduate]

Congratulations!!! I've been running with my dog too (he barely breaks into a trot most of the time! 😃). Dogs make good running companions!

[bronwynr Graduate in reply to Manxmezzo]

Thank you!! For me I know I’m at a fast pace when she starts running as well 😂

[Berksrover Graduate]

Congratulations bronwynr good to see another lurker come out of the shadows! Hope you continue to run and reap the benefits of all your hard work so fsr, and certainly don't envy you or anyone else who has to do this in hilly terrain

[bronwynr Graduate in reply to Berksrover]

Thank you!! The hills really are something where I live. At the beginning I could try and time my walks to be up the hills, but now I’m just powering through and really working my calves!

[Gran4z Graduate]

Just wanted to add my congratulations to you along with everyone else. Good running, enjoy 😎🌻
