Should I repeat Week 4 or go on

Hi all,

I've just finished week 4 today and while I did all the runs, I did find it quite tough. Just wondering if I should repeat week 4 before moving on to week 5. I had to repeat week 3 as I was out for a week after putting my back out. When I started the programme, I was extremely unfit although not overweight and had never seriously exercised, apart from walking years ago. I'm determined to get to week 9 but don't want to rush it. Advice anybody?

If you managed to do all of week4 then just go straight on to W5. You only need to repeat if you haven't managed to complete a run. :)

Nope, start Week5 , if you completed the week4 runs :D which you did :D trust the program it works :D you will be just fine :D

Week 5.

You managed to complete week 4 so onwards and upwards. If a week is too easy, you are much fitter than you think.

Trust the programme. You are ready for 5 :)

Go go go! You can do it x
