W3 R3 check

[Kerry82]

I should have really been on w4R1 but been busy working and family stuff,

The thing that I don't actually like is the walking part, it hurts I would rather keep running, but still going

We don't often talk here about doing the walking part more slowly although we're often saying "Go slower" on the run - but you might find it helps. Just as some of us will naturally be able to run faster than others, even granted we're all beginners, it must surely be the same for the walking? I started C25K because I found sustained brisk walking too painful... and still do. Running tends to feel much looser.

Yeah it does for me when I'm doing the walking it's like my muscle are talking saying "we are going to get tight", i find the running more relaxing.

I just hope my legs we stop tightening up, and will ease more as the weeks go on.

Well done Kerry I did my Wk3r3 today

[Kerry82 Graduate in reply to Jase44]

Good on you, I actually got really sweaty today cause the weather was glorious, it was a lovely spring morning

[Jase44 Graduate]

Tell me about it I wet out dressed for the Arctic and came back like something from the Bahamas tops and leggings hanging off everywhere lol

[Irishprincess Graduate]

That's interesting. What hurts when you walk?

[Kerry82 Graduate in reply to Irishprincess]

It's like my muscle don't want me to walk it's like their tightening up, it's very annoying.

I also prefer non stop running, I don't even like having to stop to cross the road and keep jiggling around while I wait for the lights. It's not the stopping, it's the getting going again. At your stage though I think it's important to take the recovery breaks, soon enough they'll be getting fewer and you might want them back!
