Can’t believe I ran for 30 minutes. I still can’t believe I’m running at all.

The first 10 minutes were hard today and I didn’t think I would finish. Got to half way and thought well I’m half way there now, I’m over the hump. Got to 20 minutes and thought well I’ve done 28 before so I can at least do that and then before I knew I got to 30. Hoping run 2 is a bit easier. Graduation is in sight now. Going to feel a bit lost afterwards as having really thought beyond getting completing 9. I’m still a long way off of 5k so I guess I’ll work on trying to up the pace and distance next.

My Facebook feed is now littered with running ads I guess due to me reading about running etc. Starting to feel like a runner now 😂🏃🏽‍♀️

You are a runner Ckj06, congratulations on almost completing C25K, just two more runs. Algorithms is what are now on your Facebook page, you have been looking at running sites so that's why your Facebook page is littered with running ads, same with me as well, good luck for your graduation run 🏃 😊

PS, regarding ads Ckj06, I have just looked at my Facebook page, there are no ads for anything, including running ads, I just realised why, about a year ago I installed an "Ad blocker" App, no ads at all, try do that and you won't have any ads at all.

That's brilliant, well done! The end of C25K is in sight, I know what you mean about feeling a bit lost afterwards, but read up about consolidation and it's quite liberating really when you decide how far or how long you're going to run yourself. Good luck! 😊
