I DID IT!!! W9 R3!

[AM2020]

Officially a couch to 5k graduate!! 😁🏃‍♀️😁🏃‍♀️😁

Tonight I went out and ran for 30 minutes & 8 seconds covering 3.1miles (5k)🎉

This time 9 weeks ago i struggled to do the 1st run and now look at me! 😁 and all without an inhaler! 😅

This was a hard run, legs were so heavy and tired but i did it!! 😁🏃‍♀️🏆🎖

Actually feel so proud of myself and it feels amazing to have stuck with it and completed it! ❤🏃‍♀️ I even got home to a romantic candle lit dinner cooked by the hubby and flowers to celebrate! 🥰🎉

Thank you so much to everyone on here for all your support! You really have kept me going. To everyone who is still going, you can do it! No matter how much your mind tells you to stop or that you can't do it YOU CAN! keep putting 1 foot in front of the other and keep going!

😁🏃‍♀️🎉😁🏃‍♀️🎉😁🏃‍♀️🎉😁

Congratulations what a great feeling. I too have just come back from wk 9 run 2 . Who’d of thought I could do that. Are you planning to take it further?

[AM2020 Graduate in reply to Gardenpotter]

Im going to stick with doing a few more 30 mins/5k until it feels easier to reach the 5k in 30mins and then i think i will up to 35 mins and so on 😁

I would also like to say congratulations I’ve only just started week 3 and still cannot imagine completing the course 😬

[AM2020 Graduate in reply to YorkshireLass007]

That was me 6 weeks ago saying 'i don't think i will ever finish it, i can't imagine running for 30 minutes' and now i can! You can 100% do it!!

[YorkshireLass007 in reply to AM2020]

Aww thank you, I only signed up on here last night and I love the positive thoughts everyone gives and the fact that we are all doing the same thing, even if at different levels, but everyone helps everyone along the way.

[f1madman Graduate]
