After a gruelling day at work I came home exhausted. I started dinner for my girls, whilst pondering 'should I leave my graduation run until tomorrow'? it would have been so easy to postpone it. With my knees nearly buckling at the anticipation of this being my last C25K run, I decided to go for it.

I cant say it was easy as I have been up since early and was already feeling tired, but I did it, I took Allfie Dog with me for company and off we trotted.

I even managed to do a little bit extra, finishing at 4.1k in 33 minutes. Not sure how this pans out in the great running scheme of things, but I was happy with it.

Next on my agenda will be to sign up for a 5k race for life, but first my graduation badge awaits me!! I am so pleased with myself, Ive been grinning from ear to ear.

Best wishes to everyone, and in the words of Spencer Davies, 'keep on running'.
