Well it was my first 30 minute run today and I went back to the treadmill as it’s so icy here! Started slower than normal today just so I made sure I finished! But the last 5 minutes I increased my pace to a β€˜proper’ run (for me anyway) rather than my usual slow jogging haha. I was a bit tired after that but it felt good to push myself. I covered 4km so yeah obviously still slow compared to many but I’m pleased with myself. Only 2 runs to go now!!πŸƒπŸ»β€β™€οΈπŸ˜ŠπŸ‘πŸΌ

Congratulations! That first long run is so daunting isn't it?

Great stuff. Starting slow is a really sensible approach. As is doing it on a treadmill when its icy!

Dont worry about pace. It's all about the 30 minutes. But great that you managed to push it at the end..

2 runs left! You could be starting 2020 as a graduate!

What Buddy said, running for 30 minutes is awesome and a real achievement. Congratulations πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰

Fantastic! Having read the astonishing health benefits of slow running I have little interest in running fast.
