Plus there are still soo much you can do with the C25K podcasts, W9 is perfect for consolidation runs, W5 R3, the one everyone dreaded is brilliant for a shorter but faster run (moving up to W7, W8 and W9 as your fitness levels increase) and week 1 is great for a short interval session.

Hi Lucy..... I graduated on Friday. Do you, or any other graduates, think I should go straight into these podcasts? I’ve read suggestions that I should do a few weeks consolidating runs first. I did a 5K this morning and plan to do this 3 times per week for 2 or 3 weeks then do the podcasts. Any advice would be great.

I enjoyed the +C25K Stepping Stones podcasts with Laura after I graduated. For shorter runs I still run along with the C25K app, when I was off running for a few weeks I reran run 1 of week 3, now between longer 5k runs, including parkruns I rerun run 3 of week 5 as a shorter run between the longer ones.
I remember running run 3 of week 5 as if it was just yesterday, this morning I had a walk along the same route, was tempted to run but yesterday I ran a 6K and still keep to that rule about not running on consecutive days.
