So darn pleased that the day I've been anticipating for quite a while now, has arrived and I completed Week9 Run3 after not doing any exercise for many years and turning 64 in June. My family have been incredibly encouraging and this forum is amazing! Really looking forward to getting my graduation badge and deciding on next 'steps'!

Woohoo! Very well done! Dance, dance, dance on that podium! 😄

Now for consolidation – there is a consolidation club to encourage you through the next phase. 😄

( I celebrated with a new playlist of favourite music after I graduated and explored some new routes - it gave a fresh new feeling during consolidation.)

Thanks Elfe5...2 glasses of prosecco with cassis went down very well!

I listen to podcasts so they will have to increase in length!
