That feels pretty good!

It should... very well done! Enjoy the victory lap that is week 9.

I like the sound of that 😁

[jiggles7 Graduate]

Well done! Thanks an epic achievement! Enjoy week 9😀🤩

[Dragonflies Graduate in reply to jiggles7]

I will 😁

[Oldlady57]

Congratulations!! 3 more runs!! You’ve got this👍🏻

[Dragonflies Graduate in reply to Oldlady57]

Right now it feels like I do, and I sure will hang on to that feeling with all my might!

[Oldlady57 in reply to Dragonflies]

Go get your well deserved podium place. Enjoy week 9👍🏻

[Dragonflies Graduate in reply to Oldlady57]

If I am not mistaken, you oldlady61 will ascend the podium very, very soon!(?)

[Oldlady57 in reply to Dragonflies]

Wednesday!!!! Eeeeekkkkkk😱all done & dusted before 0700hrs. Bizarre really when l look back at W1R1. W5 on the IC after doing both my medial ligaments for 2 weeks. No problems since (fingers crossed) Fab support & advice from the peps on this forum. Plan on doing 30mins 3 times a week post graduation. Thought l would find the courage for a parkrun on Saturday. Anyway, have a fab week 9 & look forward to reading your graduation post👍🏻

[Dragonflies Graduate in reply to Oldlady57]

I will be thinking of you on my drive to work and rooting for you on Wednesday morning x

[Hidden in reply to Oldlady57]

I was nervous about doing my first park run. Go - you’ll love it! 🙂

Well done Dragonflies 😃 welcome to week 9 all the best with your final few runs of C25K.

Any thoughts on what you’d like to do afterwards? Do you think you’ll go for 10K eventually? ⭐️

[Dragonflies Graduate in reply to Hidden]

I so have got the bug, even though I have felt nervous before every single run. “Trust the program, trust the program” has been ringing in my ears. After consolidating for a few weeks I would love to try out my local park run, and I would also love to start working towards 10k, but that absolutely petrifies me right now! So, one running shoe 👟 in front of the other for now 😄

[Hidden in reply to Dragonflies]

Aah! that’s great to hear Dragonflies! Great you’ve got the bug. Yes that’s my plan too I’m quite excited about doing a park run, I’m not sure how running with other people will feel but I’m sure it’s amazing once you get into it. Absolutely, one step at a time and see where the journey takes us 😃👍

[SubterraneanAlien Graduate]

Wow! Just three more runs to go! And in your next run, you'll know that you can do it... but you should already know that!

[Dragonflies Graduate in reply to SubterraneanAlien]

Tonight was the first time I felt that I can, apart from a few exhilarating moments when I have reached some previous milestones (like running for 20 minutes without stopping!!!). In between runs have been a bit up and down, but tonight’s feeling was a good one, and I am holding onto that 😁

[New_Runner_KD]

Oooo! well done you! Glad it is going well. Only three runs left now! Will look for your graduation post! Keep it up!

[Dragonflies Graduate in reply to New_Runner_KD]

Thank you, I am looking out for your graduation post too!

[New_Runner_KD in reply to Dragonflies]

Thanks, I am too! I have one week 8 run left either today or tomorrow and then on to the final week !!

[Hidden]

Amazing work Dragonflies 🙌

Week 9 here you come! You’re almost at the finish line! 🙌🤩🎉💪💫

[Dragonflies Graduate in reply to Hidden]

Thank you. Feels amazing! You are not far behind me 🏃‍♀️

[Hidden]

Nearly there! Then the fun really begins as you achieve goals you have set yourself. This running bug is a great thing 🙂

[Dragonflies Graduate in reply to Hidden]

I certainly have the bug, and I am looking forward to setting new targets. You are a great inspiration to me Faith and I love following your posts.

[Hidden in reply to Dragonflies]

Thank you! Ive amazed myself with what’s achievable - especially early morning runs! Never thought I’d be in to that!

[Dragonflies Graduate in reply to Hidden]

Well, early morning runs... that seems very remote to me. Never know what the winter darkness might bring out in me 😱
