W7R1 The Nemesis Run 😈

[Wenderwoo]

This was the last run I completed in my first attempt at C25K before I ended up on the IC with Achilles Tendinitus, so I’m super happy to have completed it again today. Fingers crossed tendon stays stable enough to carry on - still seeing physio and following his advice, so currently sitting with an ice pack on.

It’ll be nice to be able to press the button for the next new run, instead of having to scroll back!

Happy running folks 😁

Congratulations! You have overcome that mental hurdle and done it! Now you are carefully on your way again. Forget how long it takes- listen to you body 👏👏👏🏃‍♀️Wooohooo

Great news Wenderwoo, it really is. Your physio and ice pack treatment seems to be working really well 😊😊

[Wenderwoo Graduate in reply to Buddy34]

Thanks!

I’m going through the same thing with W6R3. That’s where I got to last time and it’s coming up soon. Strangely nervous about it. Glad you beat your nemesis!

[Wenderwoo Graduate in reply to PaulS83]

Thanks, I hope you do too! I’m definitely looking forward to your post about it.....much luck 😁

That's so brilliant Wenderwoo 🥁. A real hurdle overcome and it seems your ice and physio are doing the job 🤗👍😄. I'm still on the couch with my poor ribs, so you may well still be graduating before me too (not that it's a race, or anything)!! Think I may have to go back a few weeks to be comfortable, but am desperate to be out jogging again 😥. Well done you. 👍🏃‍♀️

[Wenderwoo Graduate in reply to apatsyf]

Thanks! I had to watch runners go on and graduate whilst I was on the IC, and it’s frustrating. But I enjoyed cheering them on, and they and many others are giving me support now.....it’s like one huge running team 👍😁

[59er Graduate]

Woo hoo! I bet that made you feel good - well done for being sooo patient and doing as you're told. Paid off in the end! 👍

[Wenderwoo Graduate in reply to 59er]

Thanks!

[DDJ2019 Graduate]

Brilliant. Well done. Keep following the guidance and I'm sure you'll get past it.

[Wenderwoo Graduate in reply to DDJ2019]

Thanks!

Yippee! Wenderwoo is back! Well done Wenderwoo, I bet you are (justifiably) chuffed to bits. Great to know you're back out there and great to know you're smashed your nemesis run. Test it well now (with the ice pack) and then when you feel up to it you can go out and smash W7 R2. You will let us know how you get on won't you?

[Wenderwoo Graduate in reply to Alast]

Thanks Alast! A couple of days rest, as per physio advice, and then R2 hopefully......and maybe a bit of yoga in between 🙏🏼 Namaste 😁

[Roxdog Graduate in reply to Wenderwoo]

Yoga is great!

[Nilsam Graduate]

Oh well done, Wenderwoo. Fingers crossed you keep going forward. You are so good with the care you are taking now. Enjoy the rest day and we will look out for that next post. 😁

[Wenderwoo Graduate in reply to Nilsam]

Thank you! 😁

[Roxdog Graduate]

Oh well done Wenderwoo - so now you're doing the longer runs that's great. 2nd time lucky - glad your injury isn't causing you problems. You are so determined that's great!

[Wenderwoo Graduate in reply to Roxdog]

Thanks!

[Wenderwoo Graduate in reply to RunningMigster]

Thanks! I would have liked to graduate at Xmas with you guys, but Easter will do 🤞🏼😁

[RunningMigster Graduate in reply to Wenderwoo]

We're still here cheering you on!!

[RunawayBetty Graduate]

Woohoo, that is really great news! I'm very happy for you. You are back where you were, and stronger than before. I haven't posted in a while, feeling rather stressed out lately, and haven't run as much as I would have liked (only 6 runs since graduation), but I have followed your progress and, as usual, admire your determination. Well done you! 👏

[Wenderwoo Graduate]

Thanks very much!

[Pebblesrun Graduate in reply to Wenderwoo]

Good to see you back on track, not long now 🤞

[NorwegianWood Graduate]

Excellent news! Hoping that your wonderful regime works to get you past this tricky time.

[Smelliepoo Graduate]

Come in wenderwoo, you can do it, (slowly and with care!!!) glad you are Back in there!

[Hidden]

I’m so glad you reached this milestone today Wenderwoo. My nemesis run is w9r1 so a few weeks away yet. You are doing brilliantly. Keep it up! 😊

[kindarunnin Graduate]

Brilliant news! Well done Wenderwoo, that must feel great to know all your patience and determination with the injury has paid off.

You're on the home straight now, uncharted territory but I'm sure you'll smash it, I reckon you deserve a "Graduate-plus" badge when you get there. 👍

No Parkrun this week then? I'm just having breakfast before heading out. 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️

Enjoy the next few runs and keep posting. 👍

[Wenderwoo Graduate in reply to kindarunnin]

I think I’m going to leave the Parkrun’s until after I (hopefully) graduate!

[Jazzyrunner Graduate]

That’s fab, it’s quite a mental hurdle, isn’t it, getting past the fateful last run 😨😨😨 You must be so happy to be through! Onwards and upwards now 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
