Last run on Friday

Final run on Week 9 to go. Believe me as a 58 year old lady you can achieve this as well. I remember the tough times on earlier runs and kept going even though it was a big challenge at the time and wondered if I would ever run for 30 mins. I didn’t want to give up and fortunately had no injuries. Keep going as I am now much fitter but I still have a little way to go to reach 5k but hopefully will eventually manage it as best time this week was 4.4k but I am quite determined to continue running on the other side of C25k and get that 5k achievement with some patience.

Well done you - it’s an amazing programme 🥳. I’m sure you’ll reach 5k and beyond all in your own time - no rush just slow and steady. Feels great doesn’t it? 🏃🏼‍♀️😊👍

Yay, sure you'll get there! I graduated in June, am 66, nowhere near 5k but am doing JuJu's magic plan to get to 60 mins, so hope to hit 5k on the way! Happy running!
