Not been able to log in for over a week and really missed this forum. But I'm back. Did my week 5 run 3 at first attempt last week and actually enjoyed it. I took the advice of a lot of people on here and just went for it, took it very slow and steady. Ran last night but so hot I gave up after 8 minutes of the first ten minutes of Run 2, Week 6... Got my 5k race for life tonight. I started this programme just so I could run this race and keep up with my fellow team mates but admit I started late, missed some runs - if I'd have gone to schedule I'd be on week 8 now and more confident. Ah well.... I'll be lucky to jog half the way round. But it's just for fun right? Good luck everyone running in this heat. For the first time last night I ran with a water bottle.
