Really looking forward to my graduate run tomorrow and feel really positive. As a compete novice I have loved the programme and considering the next instructed app. I don’t do any distance checks just run the times the app instructs me. Is the 30mins not an actual 5k? I seem to think I need to run about 10mins more. I’m not too slow anymore but certainly not speedy!? Thanks

Good luck to you Dingle73 for your graduation run tomorrow, no, you don't need to run a 5K, only slow and steady for 30 minutes will get you on the C25K podium and have the word GRADUATE next to your username 😊.

Good luck for tomorrow - I completed my graduation run this morning and I am also around 10 minutes off 5k. I was so pleased this morning when I shaved off almost a minute from my week 9 run 2 time. I plan to consolidate for the next 2 or 3 weeks without any thought of what I do afterwards - it will be a bonus to get a bit faster :-)

Well done 👍 I think that’s probably the best thing for a few week - just get faster!
