Completed run 2 on Sat night after work and ran a bit slower but felt ok only covered 3.76km as opposed to 4k on run 1? sure now I will get nowhere near the 5k on wk9 but will be chuffed just to have graduated. The one thing I am now having to get used to is running when the temp is cold as the air seems to burn the back of my throat and puts my breathing out of kilter. Onwards to run 3 either tonight or tomorrow

Have you got a buff to pull over your mouth as you run? It will prevent the cold air making your throat dry. No need to worry that you've not quite managed the 5k distance. You've done the 30 minutes continuous running, which counts. Several Grads have still not hit the 5k mark.
