I really want to do that too now! I'm thinking of keeping going on my final Week 9 run to reach 5k if I can!

I use a tram stop as my final marker...You had never seen a happier woman when I could see the timetable lights...and it give me the push I needed to "speed" ๐Ÿข up๐Ÿ˜†

Well done, thatยดs fantastic, Iยดm a slow runner. Iยดm in week 9, but have only managed 4km at the most. One day a young woman walking her dog passed me!

At least we are out there doing it๐Ÿ‘Ÿ๐Ÿ‘Ÿ

Wow! Thats my next goal which probably will take me another 9 weeks, as I seem to be way slower in W9 than you were. Fabulous!! Well done!!! Iโ€™ll try and catch up! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป๐Ÿพ
