I made it!! Graduation!

[Suzi1000]

Graduation! What a great feeling! I did struggle on this run though and couldn't wait for it to end - the time only during the programme I've felt like this. I was a week behind schedule due to a cold which is still lingering around so my breathing wasn't great. Anyway I managed my 5k in 30:27 which I'm really chuffed with. Next target is get under 30mins and do 5k comfortably.

Well done, Suzi! Congratulations.

Seriously 5K in a smidge over 30 minutes WITH the tail end of a cold - that is AMAZING - no wonder it wasn't perfect for you - that is stunning! (I just did my first 5K today in nearly double that time!!!) LOL

[Suzi1000 Graduate in reply to primaballerina]

Thanks! I'm really pleased with just managing to get to the 5k mark so the time was a bonus. When I started this journey I never thought I would be able to do it but it works.

[Lindsey-joy Graduate]

Omg that's amazing!

Congratulations on not only graduating but the amazing time and distance!

Well done! That is an amazing time. I would be delighted if I run 5k in that time. Think I may be more around 40 mins when I get there. Keep up the great work

Congratulations! I completed on Sunday and plan on consolidating in the next few weeks, but I’m nowhere near 5k, so very well done!

[Pianism Graduate]

Congratulations on your graduation... and what a fantastic time! Well ahead of my plodding pace.

Good luck with your consolidation... what's next for you after that?

[Suzi1000 Graduate in reply to Pianism]

Thanks! I am so pleased. Not sure what's next. I think I'll just be happy to get a couple of 5ks in every week and be able to run comfortably.

[Pianism Graduate in reply to Suzi1000]

Good plan... though don't be surprised if you suddenly decide to start increasing your distance.
