I graduated this morning, woo hoo. I've had a horrible cold all week but I managed to do 5k in 30 mins (after a very slow run on Weds).

If I can do it, anyone can!

Congratulations! You're one of those mythical creatures who actually manage 5k in 30mins by the end of the programme :D What are you planning to do next?

My first plan is to go out for my next run on Monday, do 5k and most importantly listen to my own music!!

I'm not sure about future plans. I think I would like to attempt to get to 10k at some point.

Also I have discovered that there is a ladies running club pretty loal to me so I might just try to overcome my shyness and get along to there.

Awesome time and distance... a big well done to you. I was nowhere near 5k at graduation, you are doing great guns!

Gosh, you're speedy!

Congratulations on graduating. I'm right behind you (albeit more slowly) and with a stinky cold too.

What is your secret? I'm on a treadmill which is supposedly easier and I'm running at about 3.75km at 30 mins....wonder what the average for graduates is? Well done you, that's amazing
