Yippee...... i have finished my couch to 5k, did the last... week 9 day 3 run...Very proud of myself!! Not sure if the 30 mins meant 5k i think it was more 4.16k but who cares.....

Think i may carry on doing the 30 mins runs for a bit. But are there any other runs like working towards 10k for example......What did other runners do when they had graduated from the couch to 5k? :)

Congratulations julesrosamund, it’s a great feeling isn’t it 👏🏻👏🏻🏆 since graduating I’ve been running 5k and trying to gradually improve my time using a Fitbit Charge 3. I’ve also downloaded an interactive zombie running game to try which looks fun ...called run zombie run 🏃‍♂️
