Only 4 more runs until I throw my C25K mortar board in the air! What's next...?

[Mowax]

Well if you'd told me at the end of January that I'd be running 28 mins non stop (and enjoying it!) I probably would have laughed in your face - in between wheezing, feeling slightly faint and just a wee bit weepy at even the thought of it - but yet here I am, 4 runs away from graduating C25K. Feel a bit weird today writing that, on one side of my brain I feel so so proud that I'm running this long now and I might actually graduate next week, on the other I feel slightly nervous that it's going to end. I feel like I might have abandonment issues when Laura speaks to me for the final time next Fri. What's next, where do I go, what do I do, this can't be the end! Pile in with the advice please

Great job... enjoy those 4 runs.

What next? Well... that depends what you want to do... there’s a plan to get you to 10k/60 minutes on the Bridge to 10k forum if you’d like to run longer.

Firstly though it’s recommended to do some consolidation work, so you can run 30 minutes at a time until it’s comfortable/easy... and that means you can have a longer goodbye to Laura. Consolidation is a good thing to do every few months it’s easy to remember to do it as you reach milestone distances or durations.

Whatever you do next, the important thing is to keep enjoying it and keep that fitness rising.

Thanks UnfitNoMore yeah I've seen people talk about consolidation runs on here, I might try them. re 10K, hmmm, that seems a huge leap from my current runs, but then again 5K seemed a huge leap for me in Jan so maybe... Thanks again

When you tell us you have graduated, I will send you a link to a guide to post C25K running.
