Just returned from W9R3!!

It wasn’t exactly the run I’d dreamed of to graduate on - the forecast went from 63 and sunny last I checked to gray with a chance of rain this morning... but the rain wasn’t coming until I’d be back from my run, so I went anyway! The first bit was very challenging as the wind was going against me, but for once at least the stopwalks worked in my favor - sometimes I swear I spend more than a full minute waiting for the walk sign, but today I only waited a few seconds at each one! Unfortunately, my GPS on my Fitbit had trouble connecting so i don’t have all the metrics I’m used to or my map of my run, but still happy to say I’ve done it! Still not easy, but that’s what consolidation is for 😁

A little while ago, I was on here moaning and groaning about how hard week 4 was (I did 3 “practice runs” before successfully completing a single week 4 run). To those of you struggling: keep pushing and slow down! You CAN do it!

Consolidation club, here I come! (Gotta get my graduation badge too 🥰)

Congratulations on completing run 3 of week 9 and graduating from C25K, well done 😀 🏃🏾 🎓

To get your graduation badge and the word GRADUATE 🎓 next to your username leave a message on the April graduate post in the pinned posts on the right side of the healthunlocked C25K home page and tell the administrators that you have ran W9R3 of C25K and graduated 🎓 🏃🏾 👍

It's amazing that you struggled with week 4 and now you can run for 30 minutes non stop, enjoy your celebrations and the 30 minute consolidation runs.
