When you announce your graduation I will send you a link to a guide to post C25k running.

If you cannot wait, it is sitting in the FAQ Posts, which you will find in the Pinned Posts.

I completed C25K about 4 years(ish) ago and have just carried on.

Initially running 5k, but then increased this and typically now run 8 to 10km 3 times a week. Not that I have done it for a while now, but have run 14km a few times.

Good luck and well done for graduating!

Hi, you could try doing some consolidation runs of 3 x 30 mins (or 3 x 5K) for a few weeks just to get your body used to running the time/distance.

After that maybe you could try following JuJu’s Magic 10K plan from the ‘Bridge to 10K’ community on here. That’s what a lot of us do after graduating.

Otherwise there are lots of running apps out there. I use the Nike Run Club (NRC) app.

I hope that’s some help. Good luck! 🙂👍
