I run every Monday, Wednesday and Friday evening after work and take a 2 day break over the weekend. I like to be regimented about these things. It must be an OCD thing! π Anyway, I went out this evening and did my Week 8 Run 1 (it was hard work!). So by my reckoning that means my graduation run will be on Christmas day! Well that's not going to happen! π€£ I will just have to go out Boxing day or the day after!
I have completely mistimed this!: I run every... - Couch to 5K
I have completely mistimed this!

Congratulations on almost completing C25K, when I was doing C25K my running days were also Monday, Wednesday but Saturday not Friday, certainly you don't need to run on Christmas Day or Boxing Day, you can run your graduation run on the 27th December which is a Sunday, which day you choose I wish you good luck for your graduation run ππΎ.

I used to do the same, very regimented. Now I look ahead at weather, work and daylight hours. Flexibility is a good thing. Don't stress if you take an extra few days. Good luck x

Just go out when you can. No pressure! Graduating will still feel wonderful!

Thanks for the responses. I was only joking. I just thought it was funny that I had managed to time it so the graduation run would have fallen on Christmas day. Being a creature of habit I like to follow the routine. I will just have to go against my instincts on this occasion! π€£π€£π€£

There is nothing better than a run on Christmas Day............. what's the problem?
The fact that I will be weighed down with a huge Christmas meal! π

An extra day off during these longer runs might just be the best Boxing Day treat for your legs. Weather here on today and Wednesday forecast is poor so I'm shifting my runs one day. I don't mind the rain. If it was forecast for the whole week then I'd go out, but if it is nicer the next day then that's what I'll do. I know what you mean though, as new runners we don't want to get out of this healthy habit! Look forward to hearing of your progress.
I always run on Christmas day! Its my present to myselfπππ
