Well done!! Was that your first park run? Iโ€™m semi planning to do my first parkrun / graduation next Saturday - would you recommend?

Brilliant achievement! Youโ€™re keen to be moving on to 10k plan already - am def not headed that way yet! Good luck!

Yes my first park run, it was great, fab atmosphere and everyone cheers you in, Iโ€™m going to give the 5-10 group a go, if I find it too hard I can drop back to the 0-5 group as they are run by the same group of ppl

Congratulations and very well done to you for your great achievement. Finishing C25K at Parkrun is a great way to finish.

Stick to 5K for 3 times per week for 2 months before starting a 10K plan. Just get some kilometres into the lungs and legs first and enjoy the 5K distance.

Thank you, the group doesnโ€™t start for a little bit so I will definitely follow the advice ๐Ÿ˜€

Brilliant! Congratulations - such a great achievement! You should consolidate your running with a few weeks of 3x30 before adding more time or pace. Itโ€™s so amazing what can be done in such a short space of time ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ†๐Ÿ…๐ŸŽ‰๐Ÿฅ‚
