I DID IT πŸƒπŸ½β€β™€οΈπŸŽ‰πŸ’ͺπŸ»πŸ†

I can’t believe I’ve just completed the couch to 5k What a journey it has been.

There have been some low lows but more importantly there have been some super high highs and today is by far the best.

I went out today and said to myself it’s your last run of the plan so enjoy it, and enjoy it is exactly what I did. I found a nice steady pace and just went for it, any pains or doubts that came into my head I noted them then let them go. I ran the furtherest I have 4.4k and I am delighted with that. I was tempted to carry on to get to the 5k, but decided that milestone is for another day- today is graduation day πŸ‘©β€πŸŽ“

I can’t believe I have finished this- I was so out of breath and puffing on my inhaler 9weeks ago and couldn’t run the length of myself and this week I have run 3x 30mins and covered 12.8k I am so elated and feel like I am an actual runner now, enjoying running and I want to carry on.

Just wanted to say a big thank you to everyone on here, you have kept me going with all words of wisdom and encouragement, this really is an amazing bunch of people. Oh and also a big thanks to MJ without your voice in my ear o never would have kept this up.

Special thanks to @chips28 for being my virtual running buddy and keeping me motivated.

Woooohooooo I’ve done it

Can I please have my badge πŸ™πŸŽ‰πŸΎπŸƒπŸ½β€β™€οΈπŸ™ŒπŸ½

hurrah - congratulations!!

It's such a great feeling isn't it? I was similar to you, 4.5k and was so tempted to push on but decided to keep that as a goal for another time.

Are you celebrating today? I've put some bubbles in the fridge to toast myself tonight. I'll raise a glass to you and Busylady1 as well :)
