Completed C25K - Yipee

Hi all, I finally completed the C25K today and realise it took longer than it should have to complete because I find it sooo hard to maintain a slower pace . I constantly find my speed creeping up and have to tell myself over and over to SLOW DOWN. Very frustrating but very happy to get to the end. Now I just need to be consistent and hopefully run for longer πŸ˜πŸŽŠπŸ™Œ

Thank you to everyone on this great forum for your running stories, tips and willingness to share your good and not so good runs. You kept me going when I thought it was too hard and my running days were overπŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ™πŸ₯‚

Congratulations. That’s a fantastic achievement. Time to celebrate and plan the next step. Any idea what you want to do next?

Thank you. I think I’ll focus on consolidating 30 mins for a while and maintain a slower pace because that’s the thing that stops my progression πŸ₯΄
