Graduated! Week 9 Run 3 - how did you treat yourself?

5 Replies

Completed my graduation run last night! I changed the route on the final run of the week from a mostly uphill run to a much flatter route and made it to 4.4km! It’s good to feel that 5k might be a realistic goal but right now I’m just looking forward to consolidating. It feels great to have found a kind of exercise I can actually stand!

I’m thinking about treating myself to something for finishing, so I’d love to know what you all did for yourselves as a well done? I’ve been eyeing up Lush’s online store for goodies...

Congratulations on completing run 3 of week 9 and graduating from C25K 🎓 🏃🏾 👍

To get your graduation badge and the word GRADUATE 🎓 next to your username leave a message on the June graduate post in the pinned posts on the right side of the healthunlocked C25K home page and tell the administrators that you have ran W9R3 of C25K and graduated 🎓 🏃🏾 👍

Now go and celebrate your wonderful achievement with whatever you fancy, there was a graduate yesterday who celebrated with a glass of rum, another who had several gins, I celebrated my graduation run with a drink of apple juice and a chicken sandwich. 😊 🏃🏾 🎓

I must admit I treated myself to a new sports bra which arrived on my graduation day-not very exciting but necessary!! I have been lurking on sweatybetty waiting for a sale - so far I’ve only ordered a headband! 😜

I ordered a charm for my nomination bracelet. Not very sporty but I said at the beginning that’s what I’d do if I finished it. Got to treat your self
