Couchphoenix1 Has Graduated !

[Couchphoenix]

Finally I got there! Just home from completing W9R3, legs were a bit achey breaky at the start, but once I’d got into a steady rhythm all was fine and it might be a corny thing to say but failure was not an option. Feeling exhausted but elated now, still can’t believe I can jog without stopping for 30 whole minutes, I keep thinking back to week 1, when I went out in a pair of old joggers and a tee shirt, no gear, no idea. Still told nobody I work with that I’ve been doing Couch to 5K I think you have a better chance of success if you keep your goals to yourself, plus I’m quite a private person. Anyway the best of luck to everyone who’s on this journey, if I can do it anyone can ! 😀🏆

[FreedomToRun Graduate]

Brilliant and a lovely early run too. Hope you tell a few people and inspire them. I’ve got two colleagues doing C25K during lockdown

Bask in the glow of success 👏🏆🎉🎉

[Couchphoenix Graduate in reply to FreedomToRun]

An update for you....I eventually decided to tell the people I worked with that I had graduated C25K and they were really surprised, but also very encouraging and I found unbeknown to me that one of them is doing C25K too and is on week 7 ! I told her about this forum and she’s now going on it too for advice and support 👍
