The Sloth Has Shuffled to the finish line!

[Slothgoesrunning]

Can not believe it. Feeling emotional - the girl who was last in the dreaded cross country at school PE lessons. I’m still not sure what made me choose running as my route back into fitness but I’m so bloody glad I did (and via this programme). Thank you all for the amazing support along the way - I have been inspired, cajoled, comforted and humbled by your kind words and encouragement. Thanks from the bottom of my heart 🤗 - here’s my tomato face pic at the end of today’s graduation run (4K- my best result so far) 😁

[Mossywall]

Congratulations! I'm a few weeks behind you, but your sentiments match mine almost exactly! I didn't expect to enjoy this running malarkey at all, yet I find myself impatient for the next run each time.

[Slothgoesrunning Graduate in reply to Mossywall]

I can’t explain it - I think there is magic involved 😉

[Comfortnotspeed]

[Run46 Graduate]

Bloody well done, and not such a sloth after all! I'm so thrilled for you...enjoy your post run smile fellow Graduate 🏃‍♀️🎉😊

[Slothgoesrunning Graduate in reply to Run46]

Thanks Run46 - was actually feeling a bit despondent at the thought of it being the last week and wondering if I was losing the enjoyment. Today has pushed aside any doubts.

[Run46 Graduate in reply to Slothgoesrunning]

It's not the last week SGR 😊, C25K is only the start if you want it to be. I consolidated for a month and built up to 5K. I was convinced I didn't want to go further but six weeks in I joined Bridge to 10K and started Juju's magic time plan to get me to 60 minutes. After that there's Juju's magic 10K plan and all the same support, and a lot of the same people as are on here. And if 5K is enough for you there's plenty of podcasts and you can continue on to support the new C25K guys 👍🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️

I've seen sloths and they can move fast when they feel the need. Bravo!

[LUHAN Graduate]

I've always said there is a little bit of magic entwined in this program! Congratulations on graduation and enjoy your day x

[MrsCDN Graduate]

I was trying to explain to friends last night that it’s completely different to school running. I loathed running at school and so always thought I didn’t like it, but having had to take 3 weeks off with a sore knee after my graduation run I missed it more than I ever thought. Was back at it Friday and again this morning 🏃‍♀️

[CookieM Graduate]

Congratulations!!

😎🏅🏃‍♀️👍
