Week 9, Run 3 - happy dance

If anyone saw a slightly overweight, middle aged woman dripping in sweat with a purple face doing a happy dance in their local park this morning that was me. I did it - couch to 5K completed! I'm over the moon and so proud of myself I could actually cry. Thank you for the kind supportive words of those who have commented on my posts, it has helped spur me on. This isn't the end though, I hope to keep running and keep improving. I'm meeting some friends for our first cuppa since lockdown later today and I'm going to have the biggest slice of cake to celebrate 🀩

Congratulations, you deserve to be very proud of yourself on graduating from C25K, now go and celebrate, by the way I did see a lady in my local park this morning as you described and I thought to myself, "she I am sure has just graduated from C25K" πŸ˜€πŸ˜€πŸ˜€πŸŽ“πŸƒπŸΎ

Congratulations. Well done to you. Haven't done mine yet, 2 day migraine 😫. Keep us updated with consolidation runs please. Not sure what to do after graduation x

Poor you with the migraine, hope you get some relief soon. First consolidation run under my belt this morning so I'm feeling good. Still a long way from 5K but that can be my new goal.
