Week 9 Run 3! C25K Completed!

[LME1707]

Completed Week 9 Run 3 tonight and even ran an extra 9 minutes to hit 5k! Never would I have thought 9 weeks ago I would have ran 39 minutes non stop! Beyond happy right now 😁 This platform has honestly been amazing for tips and advice along the way!!

[LME1707 Graduate]

I so nearly left it another day because of how warm it was! But decided to just go and get it done 😆 thank you!!!

It is such a good feeling!! How exciting, Good luck with your last week next week 😁

[Brum2cv Graduate]

Well done, it’s a great feeling isn’t it! I’m on consolidation run 9 now and push myself every time to get to 5k, it’s hard though, hopefully it will start to get easier soon!🤞

[LME1707 Graduate in reply to Brum2cv]

Amazing feeling 😁 agreed it was sooooo hard! Definitely wasn’t any easier lol. I really had to push thoughts aside to not just stop at the 30 minutes and to keep going. Hoping it will get easier over time 🤞🤞 well done for doing your consolidation runs!! Bet your feeling amazing

[Mrp63 in reply to Brum2cv]

Wekl done. I was so struggling with week 6 I went back to week 2 and restarted from there. Back up to nearly finishing week 4 but I must admit I am finding it hard

[LME1707 Graduate in reply to Mrp63]

It is extremely hard. I find it is defo all in the mind towards the end! Keep going and good luck!!

[AlysP Graduate]

Fantastic!!!!!! Well done on doing 5k as well- a far cry from a Just few weeks ago doing 3 minute runs!!!!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[LME1707 Graduate in reply to AlysP]

Thank you! I remember those 3 minutes so well, they were also very hard haha! 🙈

[AlysP Graduate in reply to LME1707]

Agreed. I am on week 8 at the moment and having to take it easy as my knee seems to hate running ( I always said running is bad for knees and would never do it ha ha). Can’t wait to reach the end. Have signed up to a virtual 5k Doggie Dash as I do all my runs off road with my little Cockapoo (off lead of course!). I basically just want a medal for this gargantuan achievement. They have loads to choose from if you are interested. Here is the link virtualracinguk.co.uk/produ...

[LME1707 Graduate in reply to AlysP]

I know!! Just take it easy, you know your body best so if you need an extra days rest then take it. I have had a few niggles in my ankle along the way so have taken an extra day here and there. That sounds amazing!! I will have a look I need something else to work towards now. Doggie Dash sounds interesting haha!!

[Rogie55 Graduate]

Congratulations. No park run yet. But you’ll enjoy when there back. Again well done.

[LME1707 Graduate in reply to Rogie55]

Thank you! I know, such a shame but hopefully I will have had a fair bit of practise before Park Run is back up and running ☺️

[Gym01 Graduate]

[Workingathome Graduate]

Wooohooo congratulations 🥳 🥳🥳 very well done and fabulous keeping going for 5k 🏆

[LME1707 Graduate in reply to Workingathome]

Thank you so much! 😁 Was hard work! How’s your knee feeling? Hope it’s feeling better!

[Workingathome Graduate in reply to LME1707]

It’s getting there slowly. I went for a walk yesterday and a slightly longer one today so if all goes well I’m hoping to try a little run this week, not sure where I’ll start, I’ll maybe try w6r1 and see how I feel after that 🤞
