You look amazing ! Congratulations! I wish I looked like that after my 30 minute consolidations. I look like a fried tomato 🍅

You have every right to be proud of yourself it’s such a achievement ! 🥳

I’m also one of those sixty somethings, but I think I have more somethings than you! I graduated a week ago and couldn’t believe it. I’m now doing consolidation runs, working towards being able to run 5K. It will take me a lot longer than 30 minutes, but I’m determined to get there.

Looking forward to reading your graduation post soon!
