I’ve only gone and done it!

I did it post covid, 16 days hospitalised and I’ve just run my 3rd outing in week 9. I decided I was going to do the 5k, so I ran for 49:50, so I’m off the pace. But feeling quite pleased with myself and more than that feel so much better, got a spring in my step that I’d lost and also sleeping better. To be continued.

You have done brilliantly considering what you have gone through a great example for people like myself who are struggling but keep going wondering why

Congratulations! 🏆🏅🍾🏃

Now to tell you off for doing WAY over the 30 minutes. Pushing for numbers gets you hurt - from personal experience.

Many congratulations on your graduation, fellow runner.

This guide to post C25k running may be helpful healthunlocked.com/couchto5...

Please take care, by running for 49 minutes you by far exceeded the 10% rule used by most experienced runners to increase their weekly training load.

Keep running, keep smiling.
