Well it was my final run of the programme and I was determined to do a good run. I did 30 mins and 2s and 4.77 I'm so slightly disappointed at not doing 5k but pleased at my time. So I'll do the run again in Saturday to get the full 5k. Can't believe I ran for 32 mins, considering week 1 I thought it was impossible!!!. So chuffed!!

The app crashed on me three times and I thought it wouldn't save my run, but it did in the end! I promised @Tiny Tears60 a pic of me finishing, so here it is!!! That's me shouting with joy! My other half hid round the hedge and clapped as I finished, which was hilarious!!!

Congratulations!! You should be so proud of yourself, you’ve done amazingly! You’re a runner!!

I’m very jealous that is how you look AFTER a run 😍 I don’t look like that BEFORE I go out 😂🙈

Well done, what an achievement. I hope I can do as well as you.

Well done on finishing! And on a high, you are so close to doing the 5k in the time, not many of us achieve that :)

Well done that's amazing - 4.77km in 30 mins! I completed the programme about a month ago and only today managed to run a full 5km and it took me 42 mins. Add a few more minutes next time and you'll hit it.

You certainly look very fresh so you have got this down to a fine art! 👏👏👏 I’m not sure I look like that Pre-run, never mind post! 🤣

So so well done! Incredible too... great distance!

Oh I’m so so chuffed for you!!!

We should be celebrating with end of run pic’s!! 📷😍🏃🏽‍♀️ Thanks so much for posting!!

Disappointed?!?! You must be delirious because of the run but NO WAY Lady!! Banish all that talk! It’s awesome!!!

I’m a tiny bit emotional reading the last bit.. in my head I’m there with you feeling that final minute as you cross the imaginary line!

Way to go! The other half clapped you on!

Love it! Amazing day and an early start to your weekend!
