I did it! First 30 min run done at 8.44am today! Ran 4.19k - first time I have measured my distance as didn't want to get disillusioned. I think I set off too fast as I was really tired at the end until I heard the magical words "last 60 seconds!" I need help - I am running a 3k on 17th May and want to speed up for that distance - how do I go about doing that? - after I have completed the Plan of course! Thanks!

I can't give advice about the speeding up, but well done you for the 30 minutes. Wow, you must be very proud! You should be. Congrats!!
