Wk6 Run3 completed

Despite my bruising and cuts on my knees, shins and the lump of skin missing from my hand from my tumble on the canal towpath I have run 25 minutes at a reasonable pace. I am really pleased I have managed it as I felt a wreck yesterday and was worried the fall would set me back just when I have found a nice steady pace and that positive mental attitude to keep going to the end when I am getting out of breath and my legs are really heavy. Shows the C25K plan really does work and this forum is great for encouragement and support, thanks folk.

Hey, well done. That was a nasty tumble you described the other day, so to come back an finish w6 comfortably is great. Good luck with w7.

Well done. Now keep that pace through W7, and then you're only 2 weeks from graduation… Congrats again.

Well done on finishing week 6 especially with the injuries from the fall - you must still have been feeling under par. You are now two thirds of the way through the programme and it's all solid runs now - the weeks will fly by. Good luck with the start of W7 and best wishes.
