Yesterday - Week 9 run 3 ... in the bag!!! Done and dusted. Started couch to 5k on the 3rd December last year, had some repeat weeks early on but as the programme went on, no repeats --- and no stoppages at all. So determined each time I set out to 'not stop' part way through ... as much of a mental challenge as anything, especially as the weeks progress. Final few yards yesterday was great as a group of people who were walking towards me said hi ... it was a local doctor I knew. His face was a picture!! He knows I've lost over eight stone. Did the Couch programme as a challenge to keep fit. The running has massively improved my stamina in my Rosemary Conley exercise classes. A few weeks ago ran round Ramsey Park in the Isle of Man, which was a nice change. Love the music in week 9 ... but may put my own music together. Nice to change routes from time to time ... going to explore Lancaster Canal in the next couple of weeks. A big thankyou to my mentor Debs who has given me words of encouragement ... when I thought I couldn't do certain weeks. Spread the word ... the programme is amazing. Now got my sister and niece doing the programme. Great to inspire others to join!

Congratulations! I've been recommending the program to a lot of people too

Awesome you! Many congratulations upon graduating! Great that you are chivvying others to join too... Well done. As for the canal - super idea! I've a good mate who can't run (serious joint problems) but she is training to walk a marathon! So we've decided to walk the length of our local canal together...Basingstoke Canal has just over 30 miles of flat towpaths... So we're doing a bit each week. Makes a good cross-training session for my C25K rest days
Very well done on graduating and on the weight loss; just brilliant! Keep it up and you will never look back. Welcome to the Grad Club!
