Completed w9r3 today 😁

β€’9 Replies

Well I have just finished c25k this morning, I will admit those last 5 minutes are a real struggle for me, 20 mins is my optimum and what I think I will build on for now, but so pleased as 9 weeks ago I couldn't do all the 1 min runs!!

Well done - you've graduated! After graduation I concentrated on building distance up to 5k rather than time but everyone has their own way to approach things. There is another thread for people that are continuing to build on what they have achieved although it is good to post on this one as well to show those just starting it is achievable.

Congratulations! I’ve 2 runs left and feel very similar to you. The last 10 mins go on forever. Good luck in your next running challenge

Thank you and good luck, I've signed up to Race at your pace to run 25 miles in September to keep me going 😁

I, too, felt ok for 20mins when I finished the program - someone suggested that I slackened off my pace a bit & it made me much more comfortable. Try running slower than you need to, ( a feeling of β€œI could go faster, but I am choosing not to β€œ) and see if you feel better.
