I graduated this morning

[Boxingfit]

I never would of imagined 9 weeks ago that I would be there running non stop for 30 mins, I could not even run 3 minutes without getting out of breath before I started. I now have a love for running. Running has also helped me improve a lot when I go to my regular boxing class. In the beginning I registered to run the Westminster mile run with the kids at the end of May and yesterday I registered to run my first 5K run on the 15th June in Hyde park. The furthest I have ran is 2.68 miles but I’m going to be working on my speed and change to running 4 days a week 😁🏃🏽‍♀️🏃🏽‍♀️🏃🏽‍♀️🏅

Wow great I’m excited for my last run tomorrow same as you never thought it was possible at all it’s a fantastic programme good luck with Hyde park what a great setting

Thank you, enjoy your last run of the programme, your going to feel great

[UnfitNoMore Graduate]

Congratulations! I’d advise waiting until you have been running 6 months before skipping a rest day. Enjoy that mile, and closing out the 5k... that won’t take too long, you’re only two laps of a track away, and you’ll continue to get stronger and fitter. Celebrate well and enjoy all your future running adventures

Thank you, I’ve felt a lot stronger in the last week, legs feel strong and I have a lot more stamina when I go boxing now that I have to push myself more to get a better workout

Congratulations on completing C25K and graduating 🎓 , number 1 rule is not to run on consecutive days until you have been running for over 6 months, so running 4 days a week now is OK. 😊

[Boxingfit Graduate in reply to AlMorr]

Thank you, I’m so happy that I have stuck to the programme and surprised that I didn’t need to repeat any of the runs but I’m quite a determined person I wouldn’t let my legs quit when they wanted to😂

That's the key 👍 much of it is mental, mind over matter. Bear in mind your brain will start making you try to give in when only 40% of your energy has been used so there's always more in the tank 😉

Well done 👏👏👏

[Boxingfit Graduate in reply to Hidden]

Thank you, the programme really works if you do exactly as it says.

[GoGo_JoJo Graduate]
