I managed to complete the final run of week 9 and had to dig deep at times to get motivated. Thanks to the advice written in these pages I managed to do it. I can't believe I made it through. My tips would be kind to yourself and go at your pace and invest in getting some proper running shoes. It will really help with those sore ankles and knees

Now that you have graduated it would be wise to go to a specialist sports shop, if they are open and get a gait analysis and buy the recommended shoes, also get good socks to match.

Congratulations on completing run 3 of week 9 and graduating from C25K 🎓 🏃🏾

Huzzah!

Specialist running shops are doing gait analysis (which is how they know what shoe to recommend) by video. Get someone to make a video of you jogging, running and sprinting, from the side, front and back. If you don't have a local runnning shop to send it to, this one is doing gait analysis and mail order shoes. They'll send you two or three pairs on approval. runninghub.co.uk/
