I completed Couch to 5K a week ago doing 5k in 29 mins & have managed to keep going with a few runs since. It took me 20 months with a years gap in between to do it - my first attempt got me to week 7 but my ankle and knees were sore so I stopped for a while. So pleased I made it, ankles and knees intact so far 😂.

Hi extremely chuffed to have completed week 9 day 3 yesterday !

I had a tendon injury week 6 so that slowed me considerably. I rested completely for one week just went walking and doing yoga to keep moving, then took it steady for the remaining runs so my distance and speed wasn’t as good as I hoped but I know I have the rest of my life to improve those things!

The fact I am running at all (having never thought it was the exercise for me previously 😂) 2 weeks off turning 60 I couldn’t be more pleased with myself , all praise and thanks to the programme and also the handy information on this forum.

Looking forward to getting my badge 🥳

Hi there! Congratulations for graduating!!!

You have your graduation badge - it appears as the word 'Graduate' next to your name when you post on this forum.

If you can't see the badge it is probably because you are using the Health Unlocked app. If this is the case, try logging in via your browser and your badge should then be visible to you 😊

Hi. I completed the programme last week - exactly 9 weeks after starting on 1st April. As an unfit 53 y-o previous non-runner I am delighted with my lockdown achievement. Back at work now but have done a couple of consolidation runs and am aiming for 5K, currently managing 4.1. I’m still not 100% convinced running is my thing but I’m going to try and keep it up as long as possible. Your tips and advice on have certainly been a great source of information and the posts provide motivation. As Administrators what you all do is amazing and what a lovely group of people on the Forum. Thank you and keep up the good work!

Good evening

Completed Week 9 run 3 this morning a few days later than I hoped as I had knee problems start with Week 8 run 1. (Thanks to posters on here, I have self-identified it as pes anserine bursitis).

I have enjoyed the comments and advice found on the forum and hope to continue running when lockdown ends (I'm normally a gym user). I don't think I'll ever get to 5K in 30 minutes (I'm 71) but I'll keep plodding onwards.

Good wishes to all Couch25K runners.

Just after 8am this morning Laura finally gave me the news that I have completed W9 R3 of the C25K. I also understand from a running shoe maker Br&&ks that it is 'Global Running Day' today.... so I took the opportunity to complete the run in their 'Virtual 5K'.

Although these are first steps, going out for c.40mins every other day first thing in the am is part of my routine and its def here to stay. So pleased I acted on the app back at start of lockdown... I know its important to consolidate now before moving onto further goals.

I’ve finally done it! 🥳. I’ve just finished W9R3!

A bit of a wobbly start as I had to change my route due to the weather and it was more of an incline than I ever realised when I first set off. After the first 10 minutes I started running low on energy, so I slowed right down and was doubting I was going to achieve it. After a minute or so I felt a little better and upped my pace again, going on to match my PB for the next mile. Just as Sarah Millican let me know I’d DONE IT! The heavens opened and I got soaked on the 5 minutes walk home. It made me smile nevertheless and was a light relief to be honest.

I am going to stick to 30 minute runs for the next couple of weeks - and follow Laura's extra podcasts on C25K+ hopefully sometime Park run will restart as I have discovered there is one not too far away - thanks for all the inspiration on this forum

Hi, I graduated from C25K on Sinday (so actually May but given my late request for a badge I guess I will be in the June graduates group?). So impressed with the C25K programme, which got me (55 and with a lifelong dread of running since horrendous PE sessions at school back in the late 1970s) running over 5k in 30 minutes. Now looking to consolidate for a few weeks :-)

IannodaTruffe profile image
IannodaTruffeMentor in reply tospiky64

Who knew, based on the school horror stories, that running could be a positive experience.......those PE teachers have a lot to answer for.

Not only can I do 5k in 29mins (which I wouldn’t have believed 8 weeks ago) but I got a lovely tan and lost 4kgs in the last 5 weeks. It’s been amazing. 7.5k and then 10k to aim for next

Love running now and no plans to rest on my laurels 🙂

If you are increasing your run length then it is not really a consolidation run as you are still pushing the bounds, rather than consolidating at your current level. That is fine if you are comfortable with it.

I've just completed week 9 I'm so proud of myself. I'm no spring chick and never ran in my life! Not sure what prompted me to try this but I did on Saturday 4th April and I've completed every run. I'm not running 5k but I've read the posts and that's not unusual. I cover nearly 5k but that includes my 5 min walk either side. I am running for 30 mins though and completed that on Wednesday. Was out yesterday and ran again. Will read the blogs for what next. For me just now more of the same and try to increase my distance. I'd love a badge!! Well done to everyone who has completed. I don't go fast but the story of the hare and the tortoise spring to mind! I didn't tell anyone I was doing this so family and friends are pleased for me too. Sorry for the length of this ramble!

Hello IannodaTruffe and the lovely community,

I completed the program earlier this week and posted my triumph ‘W9R3. Is it that time already ‘. It would be fabulous to have a graduation 👨‍🎓 badge to celebrate the event.

I’m aware that this is just the end of the beginning and a shiny badge would be a great incentive to move to the next level.

Thanks 🙏🏽

Graduated today and apart from being extremely silly and running 10k last Saturday because I felt good on W8R3 (and suffering for it on Sunday) it has been a great course and journey. This site is an amazing community and I'll try to be more active!

I graduated yesterday! Woohoo!! (What do I need to do to claim my graduation badge?)

Week 7 was such a struggle, but i completed week 9 with a couple of 6km runs (i was determined i would actually do a 5km run, even if it wasn't in 30 mins... i underestimated my pace 😆).

I may take more than 1 day off before the next run... give the shin splints a chance to calm down. 😁

Hi there, I completed C25K in early April, and thought I’d asked for the graduate badge, but it doesn’t appear to be on my profile. Please could you award/reinstate? Many thanks.

roseabi profile image
roseabi in reply toOutdoorsy19

Hi there! You have your badge, it appears as the word "Graduate" next to your name on your posts and comments.

If you cannot see the badge it is likely because you are posting using the Health Unlocked app - if this is the case please log in to Health Unlocked via a browser and look at one of your posts or comments to see your badge!

I've just successfully completed week 9 run 3, didn't really fancy going out in the rain and howling wind this morning but I've come this far so a little bad weather wasn't going to stop me. I did the 30 minutes at my usual fairly slow pace and then an additional 1 minute just because I could!! Its hard to believe that 9 weeks ago I could barely manage

the initial 1 minute jog. Thank you couch to 5 k challenge, I now plan to work on my pace and distance. Please can I request my graduate badge.

I graduated on Friday - feeling so very proud of myself because I worked really hard and stuck at it. Can only do 3.68km in 30 minutes but that doesn’t bother me - now I can build up incorporating hills and increasing time - just like passing your driving test, a starting point for a healthy future! Thanks to everyone for the encouragement - I don’t post much but got loads from reading all the posts. Onward and upward! 👍

Also, are you looking at your posts and comments? The badge is visible on those, but not in your profile, like this:

Finished my final 30 minute run of Wk9. Co-incidentally it was my worst run of the whole programme owing to me expecting it the be a breeze after 2 x 30 mins already under my belt. I was almost in tears but managed it. I loathed running before this but apart from this run I have loved it all the way. Can't wait to get out there again and consolidate.

I am so lucky to have done this program with my husband and daughter- it has been great fun and we have laughed while we ached! Our run today was 5.2 km- we decided that we wanted to push to run 5km rather than focus on 30mins. My tips? Avoid the sun- it really kils me- and slow down when tired. I know it has been said before but it really works. Good luck all😀
