Hi all,

Well I only went and did it!! I’m absolutely over the moon. Now if only there was an emoji for collapsed in a heap on the floor.

To all those just starting / already on c25k journey stick with it. (you don’t have to be rigid unless that works for you) It feels amazing to get to the end of this but now I’ve got to maintain 😬 Thank you to all you lovely people on here for all the support you continue to give I couldn’t have got this far without you. πŸ₯°πŸ₯°πŸ˜˜

Thanks- I accidentally joined before c25k I’m not great with tech!! - maybe subconscious optimism?? 🀣

GrannyhugsGraduate in reply to Jacca

I saw that which is why I mentioned it πŸ˜‰ you obviously want to see what we are all up to. Grab some consolidation runs this side of Christmas while you read our posts. We are just as friendly and encouraging and you'll see some names you recognise

Parkrun is perfect for getting you to the magical 5km if you have one near you. It's a great atmosphere and you can just go at your own speed.

JaccaGraduate in reply to Enxo

My auntie had it done a while ago now I think she was in her 30’s she said she could see practically straight away with no trouble so I hope it goes as well for you ! Will you need much time off from running with it?

Enxo profile image
EnxoGraduate in reply to Jacca

One to two weeks I suppose however I will check with the doc tomorrow. I guess you need to protect the eye from the shock of the foot strikes!

Jacca profile image
JaccaGraduate in reply to Enxo

Last thing you want to do is bugger anything up so listen to your doctors
