W9R3 > done today!

Took me 15 weeks instead of 9, but hey, better late than never!

For some reason I kept on putting the last run off till the next day.

Why did I wait?

I think deep inside it wasn't because I didn't want to run but rather because I didn't want this to end. It was great! 5,38km in total today (warm up&down walks included).

Here's to the next adventures running!

Thanks to all for your precious help along the way.

Now what? 5k+?

Brilliant! Well done, it's a great achievement completing c25k. I have just started 5k +, speed today. It was lots of fun. Who'd have thought?

Congratulations Gizel.

I'm already starting to wonder what I'm going to do once this is over and I'm only about to commence Week 6, so I can understand why you put it off.

Well done! What a sense of achievement.

What you do now is lead on and inspire those of us still in the middle of the programme... Don't let us down now!

congratulations!!!

goals are crucial - my running petered out for a month or so before I decided to actually START the bridge to 10k program, and not just think about it! I hope you think of a new goal and start it sooner than I did ;)

Well done! This should have been my graduation week, but there's just too much ice and snow underfoot to even contemplate running at the moment. Haven't run now since Saturday grrrrr!

Fantastic news, Gizele! 5k+ podcasts are good for speed and stamina if you are thinking about increasing speed and/or working towards a 10k? Good luck whatever you choose! :)

Well done, it's a great feeling isn't it?!

I did my W9R3 on Tuesday and am undecided as to what to do next. I am going to do a 10k in July, so should start training for that. But I'd quite like to focus on improving my pace and get to 5k in 30 mins.

I suppose the important thing is that we keep on running!!

Congrats again x
