Well thatโ€™s it! Last run ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™‚๏ธ this morning on this program, thoroughly enjoyed it, ๐Ÿ˜ƒ even the runs that didnโ€™t go that well. Got way further than I ever thought I would, surprised myself and my friends some of whom are keen to try it themselves now!!

Next step is to reach the 5k in the 30 mins, Iโ€™m about 700m off at the minute so Iโ€™ll stick at it until I reach it ....then itโ€™s onwards and upwards, Iโ€™d like to push on and run for an hour and see how that goes, itโ€™ll take time but Iโ€™m well on my way.

Thanks to all who replied to my posts

this forum and your support and help has been amazing and much appreciated โค๏ธ

Wherever you are in the program please keep going itโ€™s so worth the effort and in the words of the amazing MJ โ€œ You can do this...you can definitely do this!โ€

Congratulations! I mixed a few shorter interval training runs in with the 5ks once Iโ€™d graduated. I think it helped me get quicker. Check out the nhs choices โ€˜speedโ€™ podcast by laura (same laura who does c25k podcast and app). And apparently park runs are good for pace too, though I havenโ€™t done one yet. Good luck!
