The dreaded week 5 run 3 completamundo!!!

[mancbird]

A beautiful sunny, but windy, Sunday morning. 7.20am start. My calves screamed and I felt like giving up, but that's not in my character! I persisted. I tried to distract my mind. My butt ached. Did I say my calves screamed??!! But by golly I finished it. When Laura told me to cool down I could have kissed her!!

2.5 miles run and 371 calories burned. Time for my weetabix......and 9am is time for 50 laps of the pool.......see you all in week 6 (happy face time now!!)

Ps still can't believe I did it. Go me!!

Go you indeed!!! That's the psychological mountain out of the way, now it is just conditioning and stamina building. It is not quite downhill all the way, but I am sure your self belief has been boosted.

Congratulations. Keep running, keep smiling.

Well done! That's a big run under your belt. A swim will be great to stretch out those muscles - over half way through now!

Oh well done ! You CAN do it !

[loubee33 Graduate]

Well done! I cried when I did that run!

[misswobble Graduate]

Absolutely! Go you!!!!! Well done Manc. Keep up the good work. If your calves are burning are you going too fast perhaps? Slow is good so don't be in a hurry

Enjoy your swim. While you lap the pool you can think about week 6. Nah, maybe best not.LOL

Thanks for the inspiration guys. I come on here to see others that have graduated and who have done what I want to achieve. I also come on here to see others who are going through what I am going through now. I think if I tried this without health unlocked and it's members I may have given up. But onto week 6 I go!!!!
