I've just finished run 3 of week 8 and I feel great. I'm looking forward to week 9 and I'm confident I will be able to run 5k in 30 mins. If I manage it, I'll post a screenshot from my fitbit of the time and distance.

3 runs to graduation 😁.

I have found this week a Challenge due to recovering from a bug, so a bit frustrating...it was all going swimmingly...hopefully back to full fitness this week.

Catching a bug is not helpful. I stopped for a week during week 3 because I caught something, it just wasn't worth running and making myself feel worse.

I hope you're back to running next week πŸ˜€.

I'll post again when I (hopefully) graduate.

Almost there OrangePeacock, great run for you today, not long now until you graduate πŸ˜ŠπŸƒ πŸƒ Good luck. πŸ‘ The important thing is to run non stop for 30 minutes not neccessarily getting a 5K but if you do, that's a bonus. 😊
