Many congratulations on your graduation, fellow runner.

This guide to post C25k running may be helpful healthunlocked.com/couchto5...

We recommend that you consolidate at 30mins/5k (whichever you achieve during the plan) for a few weeks, taking the pressure off and becoming fully comfortable with that before moving forward. healthunlocked.com/couchto5...

Keep running, keep smiling.
