W9R3 done

Well, I'd never have believed it two months ago, but today I completed C25K! I'm not running anywhere near 5k - yet - but that'll come, I definitely believe it now. Amazing program, seems absolutely perfect for middle-aged non-runners like me. And the cramping calves are still a wee bit tender but nowhere near as bad as before #winning

Congratulations Graduate... very well done.

The 5K may come.. or not... don't worry about it... many never achieve it, many do not wish too..but they still love their running:)

Celebrate and then...move onward:)
