Hi all,

Well this morning at 7.32 I graduated. So very pleased and proud that I have managed to stick to this programme and completed it (with an extra 2 weeks because of the heat).

Even though I haven't posted very much on here I have followed the advice and tips and the posts of other fellow 'runners' - can I call myself that - and found it so helpful.

I couldn't get to the 5k, unfortunately I was quite a way off, but I know that I'm not alone in that and it will all improve with time and regular runs, so am not worried about that, onwards and upwards.

Going to take a few day's rest and then work out a plan/mini goal, so far it's carry on for a few weeks at the 30 mins, then start increasing by 10% on one of my runs a week and see where we go from there.

Thanks everyone again from someone who doesn't really use any social media - not even on Facebook - this is a fantastic site and I'm so glad I found it.

xx
