Congratulations and well done

[Dadn2kids Graduate]

Finally finished - me and the lad got to the 28 minutes runs (week 8) then holiday intervened. He then had secondary school start so hasn't had the time or energy to finish. However one of the points of doing this was to build his fitness and confidence. At the end of his first day he came home and announced that not only was he doing an hours games lesson the next day but he'd chosen to stay after school for an hour of rugby training - which he also did the following day. He's happy and confident and much more active than previously so I regard that as a success for him even though he hasn't technically graduated.

In my case once we got back off holiday and I was back at work I've reverted to treadmill running as I can do that in my lunch hour rather than the darker evenings. It has the advantage that I can monitor my pace/distance within the 30 minute runs of week 9. Those got ticked off last week so I'm officially finished. On the last run I clocked about 4.6km in the 30 miles so not that far off the 5k. I suspect when I finally get round to doing our local park run I'll be a bit slower as it has a few hills on the course.

This week has been a bit of a "take it easy" week with just some swimming because I have my eye on a 20 mile charity walk on Sunday and want to make sure my knees aren't creaking before I start. Back to running next week.

[Realfoodieclub Graduate]

Congratulations and well done. That is great news about your boy. I love this forum, it is hearing things like that perk up my day, thank you for the share. Rfc x.

[Kanders29 Graduate]

Kirsty here... I’m a “Couch to 5k” Graduate 👩‍🎓 🎉 As someone who has never been part of a sports team, who feels genuinely uneasy at the thought of the gym and whose idea of hell is an organised exercise class or #wod, I am genuinely so proud of myself 🕺Never in a million years thought I’d be able to run for 30 minutes, even last week when I was managing 28 mins I still had doubts. Thanks Jo Wiley and C25K!

Did my first parkrun yesterday and have now run 5K! I ran for 30 minutes a couple of months ago after completing the couch to 5k but was only running 4k. It took me 40 minutes but I ran 5k yesterday at the local parkrun!

[Norfolk18 Graduate]

I did it, eventually. Week 9 was a bit of a wash out with returning to work and running afterwards isn’t the best so didn’t count the last two runs of week nine. Have now done three 30 minute runs in total.... please say it counts 🤞🏃‍♀️

[Realfoodieclub Graduate in reply to Norfolk18]

Congratulations and well done

[MrsBeario Graduate]

Today I completed Wk9r3!

Tried to copy from Strava but hasn’t let me paste the evidence (my IT skills are sadly lacking)

Didn’t quite make the 5k and the podcast cut out half way through but I kept going and felt that I could have carried on. I am thrilled to have stuck to the programme, albeit with slightly longer rest periods between runs over the last couple of weeks.

[Realfoodieclub Graduate in reply to MrsBeario]

We don’t need to see the evidence we know you have done it. 😀Congratulations and well done

[MrsBeario Graduate in reply to Realfoodieclub]

Thank you 🙂🏃🏻‍♀️

[Blacjaguar]

So if I can run for 30 minutes but it takes 50 minutes to do a 5K...keep going until I can do 5K in 30 minutes for a graduate badge? If so, see you in a couple decades maybe hehe!

[Realfoodieclub Graduate in reply to Blacjaguar]

If you have done 9 weeks and run 30 mins three times you are entitled to your badge.

[Blacjaguar in reply to Realfoodieclub]

Cool thanks!! I was so close and slipped, so try try again hopefully maybe.

[Realfoodieclub Graduate in reply to Blacjaguar]

good luck and look after yourself, it is slippery out there. Rfc x
