Couch to 5K Graduation!

Hi! Forgot to update, I've run a race and also been sick lately, but here's my update:

I completed Couch to 5k doing 3.82km in 30' with a pace of 7'51'' using Watch to 5k.

Although after finishing W8R3 I did the 5k Barbie Run 2024 and then I did the last 3 runs to complete the program πŸ˜…. That one I did, according to Strava, 4.72K at a 7’43’’ pace in 36 minutes.

Right now I've been sick, but I have the Roche Posay Cancer Run this October, 20th. Again 5k, of course.

I plan on just continuing running 30' and occasionally doing 5k races for now.

I do want a plan to improve my 5k, but I'm relaxed. I'm thinking about the Watch to 5k continuation (5k to 10k Expansion Plan) or doing maybe the Nike Run App, I don't know if it has a "5k improvement plan" or alike. Not sure, but it's still for later, so I have some time to decide.

Congratulations πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘, there's lots of guided runs on the Nike run club app which will keep it interesting for you, don't worry about speed or pace at the moment, over time you will naturally speed up a bit 😁
