Normally I run at the end of the day, but decided to do my final run first thing in the morning before work. It was super warm at 18deg, did my warm up walk and decided to push myself a little bit for the last run. Was so happy to see I could again run for 30 mins and covered 5.14km.
I cant stop smiling thinking just 8.5 weeks back I could not run for 30 seconds without huffing and puffing and I my last 3runs were 30mins! For someone who does not particularly like running, I am surprised I dont dislike it either anymore.
Thank you to all the forum members who commented to encourage & give advise right from w1r1 on 26 12/21 & helped me to complete the 9weeks.
Next goal is to run 5k regularly and gradually increase the distance. Would much appreciate any advise on that

IannodaTruffe thank you for the links. They give a bit of direction for 'what's next'. I will definitely go for consolidation & flex/strength next.I am so excited to build on what I have achieved with c25k.
Thank you I57. Yay!I am not sure if I deserve the badge, still seems unreal that I can run for 30mins. Need to keep building on it or atleast maintain it and any advise will be great!
I would certainly suggest a period of consolidation now by running the 30 minutes untill they become comfortable (perhaps not at the same pace though 🤔)
Of course you deserve the badge, congratulations on completing run 3 of week 9 and graduating from C25K, well done, follow the link of IannodaTruffe toget your graduation badge and the word GRADUATE 🎓 next to your username then celebrate 🎉 🎓 🏃🏾 👍 with a glass of 🍷
nowster , I am so short I can easily pass as a hobbit though specially compared to all the tall people it really is inhabited by. Hairy feet is debatable 🤣
