Thank you everyone who has encouraged me both in all if your lovely posts and replying when I faltered.
Today on a rather grey day i graduated. Nowhere near 5K in 30 minutes but i did do 5K overall with some extra walking.
I am 71 and have never run. I needed to lose some weight and get fitter. What a brilliant programme this is. Thank you again.
Many congratulations on your graduation, fellow runner.

Keep running, keep smiling
Excellent! I know how you feel. Don’t feel any pressure to go further or faster. 30 minutes of running at a modest pace is excellent exercise at any age. Enjoy your consolidation runs😊🏃🏼♀️
Congratulations! 🏃♀🏅🏆🍾
Huge well done to you! You must be so proud of yourself!!
What an amazing achievement. So pleased for you. You must feel incredibly proud. Bask in that glory, you deserve it.😁😁😁🏆🏆🙋
Thank you all very much. I am quietly chuffed 😊
Huge congratulations to you - it's a real achievement for anyone but (since you mentioned your age) how fantastic that you have the enthusiasm, drive and energy at 71! I hope that I have that joie de vivre in a few years. Bravo

Week Done. You are an inspiration to me. I have just started week 2 and am 73 next month
Very good wishes for your running. It gets tough at times but if you can get someone to come with you that helped me. My lovely daughter trotted along with me sometimes which spurred me on when I wanted to give up.
73 young. Brilliant. There are so many people on 5he forum facing multiple challenges. All inspirational. Good luck.
