Graduated this morning!!!

I did it! I am amazed with myself, but I finished it this morning. There are still times when I don't feel like going out running, but I recently read that, with exercise, you'll never regret it if you don't go and do it, but you will frequently regret it if you give in to laziness and stay on the couch. If I can do it, anyone can!

That said, although I can run for 30 minutes non-stop (32 actually, because I've made my own playlist), I'm still not running the full 5k distance. But in way that's good because I still have something to aim for. I'm determined to carry on and get to the 5k mark. But at the moment running for the full 30 minutes is good enough for me.

Congratulations!

I've got two more runs to go and then I've promised myself I can have my own playlist too.

Well done! Bet you didn't think you would run for 30 minutes non-stop when you were on week 1 run 1 ! :)

Well done, and I fully endorse the bit about not regretting ever going out for a run! Have had a few dodgy runs since graduating but got something out of every one of them!
