W9R3 - completed!

[NearlyMan]

Just got back from a wet and muddy graduation run - surely the best kind of run??

Managed a touch over 4km again, this time all on flat rather the downhill finish I had on Thursday.

This plan is fantastic, the only time I felt out of my depth was before I’d started it. It gives you the confidence to complete each running knowing that you’ve managed everything else it’s asked you to do so far.

The plan’s brilliance is only overshadowed by that of this forum and it’s members. Thank you all for your support, guidance and encouragement. I really could not have got to this stage without you all - thank you.

Couple of consolidation runs and on to 5k!

[Grannyhugs Graduate]

Fantastic effort in the mud. Enjoy the feeling then get ready for consolidation

[NearlyMan Graduate in reply to Grannyhugs]

Thanks Grannytobe, it definitely makes it harder going!

[Grannyhugs Graduate in reply to NearlyMan]

The next run will be super easy then 😏

[NearlyMan Graduate in reply to Grannyhugs]

I think the mud may be here to stay for a while 🤣

[Grannyhugs Graduate in reply to NearlyMan]

You are a better runner than me, I’d be looking for new routes - oh I do that already as I got bored running the same route repeatedly. I’ve yet to tackle off road, especially as I have an aversion to running downhill but that’s the thing I’m tackling now, maybe the mud would take my mind off it. I’ll think of you when I try

[NearlyMan Graduate in reply to Grannyhugs]

No, no, no - not a better runner, a different runner. I haven’t run on the roads yet, in fact I’ve done as much as possible to avoid hills as yet. I think that will have to be something for me to work on now I’ve graduated, there is very little flat ground around here.

Enjoy the mud!

[NewRunner4 Graduate]

Very well done. It’s a great feeling to get to then end. Who knows where your running journey will take you now...

👏👏👏

[NearlyMan Graduate in reply to NewRunner4]

Thanks NewRunner, the great feeling is still going strong!

Fabulous NearlyMan and it sounds like you did it in style!!! Mud and everything?!! Your badge really suits you too, well done 💪👏👏👏👏

[NearlyMan Graduate in reply to Mummycav]

I think style might be a push! I’ve got white running socks for now (well, white-ish!) I think I need black ones next 😂
