W9R1 done :)

[Rosey21]

Woo I did it! I can run for 30 minutes straight! Oh yeeeah!

I still can't believe it & I still can't stop smiling Also got a bit teary too...wow what a program

Only 2 runs left!

Congratulations! It feels great, doesn't it? I ran Wk9 R1 yesterday. So we are on the same schedule. I think tomorrow I will try to run 5K just to see how long it will take. At my current pace it will be much longer 30 minutes for sure, but it will be a good test.

Hey keepntabs

It feels amazing!!! well done on your run too - we're nearly there!!

I think I'm going to finish the program first then try and run the whole 5k. I'm exactly the same as you, running that distance would take longer than 30 minutes. Usaain Bolt I'm not lol let us know how you get on

Keep it up!!

Good going, Rosey! Almost there! It's a marvelous feeling to know you can do 30 minutes straight, isn't it? I was sooooo happy!

Good luck, and good running!

It's a great feeling, especially when you think back to where we started and how far we've come Just amazing

What's next for you now then?

Well done Rosie! You're so nearly there! Just remember how we all felt at W1! Hard to believe, isn't it?

You're racing ahead of me - I failed on W8R3 yesterday - boo hoo! About to post a question on this.

Go girl, and enjoy that green badge next week!

Thanks RiverRunner, it really is hard to believe!

Don't worry about your W8R3 run, it happens I struggled with race 2 big time I had to slow right down, felt like I was walking lol ..there's a number of reasons why runs don't work out sometimes. Keep at it and go for week 9 I'd say

You'll have that green badge in no time

[Barney019 Graduate]

Well done Rosie - I've always been a week behind you and I've just done my first 28 minutes -can you beleive we can run this far? Keep at it, see you at graduation! x

[Rosey21 Graduate in reply to Barney019]

Well done Barney!! You're doing so well, that green badge is in sight

I still can't believe it, it seems like an impossible achievement when you're starting at week one doesn't it?

Hehe, yep, see you there

[Nevertoolate Graduate]

Well done Rosie - 30 minutes!! Isn't it amazing what we've achieved, all of us? I did w8r3 this morning and will go onto week 9 on Monday. I've been having more rest days as I was quite tired but I'm determined to finish this next Saturday morning. When will you be doing your graduate run? And you too keepntabs?

[Rosey21 Graduate in reply to Nevertoolate]

Thanks Nevertoolate it is so amazing what we've all achieved each week

Well done on completing week 8, onto graduation week now! It has been more tiring hasn't it but I'm sure you'll have that badge by Saturday!

My graduate run will be on Wednesday having the weekend off

Keep it up, we're nearly there

[klw13 Graduate]

I cant believe I start W9 tomorrow - rain or shine I will be out. Getting used to soggy trainers x

[Rosey21 Graduate in reply to klw13]

Thank you! Well done on reaching graduate week Got my 2nd run later today I'm sure our trainers will be full of water by the end
