Just finished

I’ve just finished too had no idea at the start if I would make it, I’m 54 and prob 3 stone too heavy so if I can do it anyone can. Now going to keep going and get to 5k I’m around 4 in 30:mins as a bit slow. I will not be speeding up but will run for longer so impressed with The app.

Congratulations! Celebrate well, enjoy some consolidation and that journey to 5k (or vice-versa). One running adventure ends, there will be many more.

Well done!! Fantastic achievement!! The plan IS amazing- and 4K is great, hardly anyone does 5K at graduation and it leaves something to aim for in consolidation. 😜

I hope you are feeling justifiably proud 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🏃🏼‍♀️💪🏻👍🏼🏁🎓

So pleased for you Dusty, I'm right behind you (well was at week 8 and tore my calf, all better now but Physio recommends I start again, which I don't mind), also 50 something and a few stone overweight so am very encouraged by your post

Thought some was describing me for a moment then remembered already 55. I’m exactly the same as you slow and steady as and now building to the 5k currently at 4.6 but as the Olympic s are cancelled this year I’m in no hurry! 😜😂 well run and keep going!
