Congratulations on another week ticked off! How exciting for you! Don’t worry too much about distance-the couch to 5k programme is all about running for 30 minutes and you’re well on target to do that three times. Maybe time to think about how you’ll celebrate?

Thanks x the friend I’m running with has said he will treat me to lunch if I get a new PB so that works for me. I can manage 3 more before I go on holiday so I’ve planned my consolidation and hope to get a couple of runs in during my week in Cornwall then when I get back it’s onto 10K programme - eek!!

You’re guaranteed that then because you’ve never run for 30 minutes before!

Well done! I also have 2 runs left. I graduated in Jan & then had some time out due to injury. I managed 4.5km in my best 30 minute run outside. My slower on the treadmill. I’m 58 next week!

How to I access race predicted?

Sounds like u r doing fab well done xx I have a Garmin fenix solar 7 and it’s via “performance stats” - once on Garmin connect app click on the 3 dots ( “more”) then it’s 3rd one down. Gives 5k, 10K, half Mara and full Mara - it’s interesting to see how they change over time x
