Wk 9 Run 3 - Graduation Run

For someone with little to virtually no fitness, all I can say is WOW how did i do this?

It wasn’t easy, I have struggled, laughed, cried, been out of breath, sang along to songs, felt I could have given up after that first run but also felt at times I could have ran further or faster. No run was the same. I have achieved so much and super proud to have completed this programme even though I haven’t quite hit that 5k target.

This journey is one I will embrace and continue to build upon and feel I could not have done it without the support, encouragement and advice from you, my running family so I would like to take this opportunity to say ‘Thank you!👏🏻👏🏻

‘Life is not always good but we have to make the most of what we have. Therefore let go of the past, live for the present and look forward to the future’
