Congratulations! You Did It!!!

YOU DID IT! You should be so proud of yourself — you really showed amazing growth in the last month!

Perhaps you should share — OK, more like brag 😉 — about your accomplishment on social media? (Don't forget the hashtag: #4wksTo5K and tag us on Instagram @Goodful)

And would you do us a favor? After you officially finish your 5K, will you reply to this email and share your photos and stories with us? We'd love to see what you accomplished! (And we might just feature your photos in a future Goodful post!)

Here’s your final pat on the back from Coach Jason:

“Congratulations on completing the challenge! You've come a long way, dramatically improved your fitness level, and proved to yourself that you can become a successful runner. That's a lot to be proud of right now.

As you continue your running, you might want to get faster or finish a longer distance. No matter your goal, one of the best ways to prepare and increase your ability level is to run more. Simple, isn't it?

So after you celebrate, build upon what you've already done. Running is cumulative so what you've done over the last few weeks will only help your racing in the future. Gradually increase your weekly mileage by 5-10% every two weeks and you'll be a whole new runner in another few months. Get excited; the journey has just begun.”

Want to Keep Your Progress Going?

Congrats on finishing the 4 Weeks To 5k Challenge! But just because it's over doesn't mean there's not still a ton about physical health and wellness that you can learn! That's why we think you might really like our Goodful newsletter, Well Well Well. You’ll get our latest and greatest content delivered once a week.
