Pardon me whilst I punch the air.... I only started Couch to 5K in May and when I started being able to run 5km regularly, running people congratulated me and all said "10K next" to which I poo-poo'd as I NEVER thought I'd be able to achieve it. But I just have, around my local town - also making mincemeat of hills that previously would have floored me....in one hour, eleven minutes and 56 seconds. The weird thing is that I honestly didn't feel like I was running for all that time.... it went a lot quicker.

I'm off for a well-earned shower now....

Wow congratulations Domane!!!

thats amazing

Well done! I'm on week 4 of the couch to 5k so that's inspirational!

Woo hoop. I'm so pleased for you. Very inspirational. I'm on week 5 but had to rest today due to a twisted ankle. Another 5.2 jig is on the cards.

That's amazing!!! Well done hun, you must feel so proud of yourself xx

Well Done Domane!

I did my first 10k last Tuesday, it wasn't planned and I ran past the Butcher's three times in total (much to the amusement of the staff)

And of course, people will now say "half marathon next!" - it is never-ending, unfortunately, there will always be another target!

But well done, anyway!

I take my hat off to you all!

Congratulations! It's a good feeling isn't it.

Well done

OMG. So Hapoy for you. I'm so jealous though. I really love running and I have the cardio capacity but my right hip hates it. Keep on running whilst you can.
