Commencing C25k on the Monday 16th Sept and with 3 weeks consolidation and a 5k Park run in Dubai with my daughter, should have rebuilt the foundations for a third time and be back up and running and back home for Xmas around the 9th Dec.

Enough time to do a little more consolidation and commence bridge to 10k during Jan / Feb.

That’s far enough for the minute.

Going to actively include intervals / sprinting along the way.

So hopefully almost finished C25k before going to Dubai in November.

Best wishes to all with your plans.

👊💥🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️⭐️⭐️👏👏

What a nice photo of you and your grandchildren Tbae, so your date for commencing C25K for the third time is 16 September, this time you will sail through all the nine weeks with no problems whatsoever. 😊 🏃

By that time after the consolidation runs you will be ready for that 5K in Dubai with your daughter.

This morning I went a walk around Milngavie Reservoir near Mugdock Country Park, that is where I ran run 3 of week 7 last year.

Tomorrow morning I am due to get my hair cut and after that I will wash my hair and then go run a 5k near to where I live.

Tomorrow was the day that I originally planned to run my first 10K but I ran that last Wednesday,keep well.

Regards

Alan. 😊 🏃

That's a lovely photo Tbae, but you look as if your hands are full!

It sounds as if you have a plan there and know exactly what you're going to do. Good luck with it all, the C25K will be familiar territory for you and I'm sure you'll sail through 🙂

Yes IP but only on my birthday.👍👏👏

Two live in Dubai and were returning that very day, and 3 in Surrey and were returning that weekend.

It’s a gift,a blessing and a joy that also because of families being spread over the world,our hands are more free.

🏃‍♀️⭐️👏👏
