Knew I wouldn’t hit 5k in 30mins so decided to push on if I felt like it.

It may well have been quicker to ride a tortoise, but I’ll take it!!!

I very much doubt a tortoise could run a sub 40 minute 5K, well done on completing run 3 of week 9 in 0.39.11, don't complain about your time.

Congratulations on completing run 3 of week 9 and graduating from C25K, well done, remember to tell the administrators, then you will see the word Graduate next to your username..

Thanks.I jest of course. I wouldn’t have minded if it took an hour.

I submitted my 35.21 not parkrun time to my home parkrun, this week I won't be last, I noticed that someone, I presume walked it in a time of 1 hour 20 minutes.

Well done on your graduation. Don’t ‘knock’ your pace - I graduated at the end of August and a sub 40minute 5k is still not something that I’ve achieved. Enjoy your runs whatever the pace - it’s the running itself that’s so very good for you rather than how fast you do it. 😊

Thanks. I wouldn’t have believed it possible a few weeks ago, so I am pleased. Just me and my daft sense of humour.
