Today 5 years ago I graduated from C25K on running run 3 of week 9 along the promenade at Helensburgh on the west coast of Scotland, what a wonderful 5 years it's been for me since the 18th June 2018, I kept the original post of that run which you can see above, I am hoping to rerun it tomorrow at the exact same place weather permitting, if not a week tomorrow, there is a weather forecast for thunder and heavy rain tomorrow morning.

Thanks Doris8, this morning I went a 16K bike 🚲 ride at 7.45 am., I met a runner who had just ran 8K.

Update Floss, 19th June I reran run 3 of week 9 this morning at 10am along the prom at Helensburgh on the west coast of Scotland, it's about 30 miles away from where I live, the weather at home was dry with bright intervals but where I ran it was dull with light rain, the 30 minutes run brought happy memories of the first time I ran it 5 years ago.

Thank you very much Mummycav, I hope to rerun it tomorrow at the same place as I ran it 5 years ago but the weather forecast is for heavy rain only clearing around midday, if not I will run it a week tomorrow.

good for you Al..5 years has flown by!! This year is my 6th year as a runner…I am working my way through the programme a bit…I’ve been doing some jeffing for the last couple of runs but I am dipping in and out of c25k until I eventually get to the end again….

Hope you’ve celebrated x

Today is Father's Day, at one o'clock my daughter and two grandchildren came to my house and gave me a box of chocolates, so I celebrated that and my 5th runiversary with them.

AlMorrAmbassadorGraduate in reply to Dendev75

That's a nice complement Dendev75, I have come "a long distance" so to speak since I graduated, the longest run being a half marathon, but I have also ran 8/10 mile runs and 38/10Ks as well as 84 parkruns

I’m inspired 😍 I’m currently at the 10k stage after completing the ct5k a year ago. A few setbacks but aiming to do a 10 mile in October then a half next March - why not? ☺️
