graduated but only running once a week-does this still count?

I’ve just run week 9 run three and graduated which I’m super proud of but due to work and school drop off/pick up commitments I’ve only been managing one run a week since week seven hence it’s taken months to finally graduate. I can’t help feeling like I haven’t quite achieved what I set out to do as I’m not running three times a week and still don’t feel like I have the stamina to do that, even if commitments allowed.

I’m going to keep running and hopefully work commitments will ease allowing more opportunities to go for a run so I can increase my stamina but just wondered if anyone else was having similar issues and feeling the same?
