Wk5 Run3 - Done!

Said I'd let you know - and I did it!! Went out a bit earlier than normal as it was praying on my mind, starting was ok, had to talk myself out of cheating at the 7 or 8 minute mark and by the time I'd done 15mins, I knew I could do it! Can't describe how good it feels, from counting down the seconds left to run during week 1, to running 20mins non-stop four weeks later! Almost looking forward to next week...

Brilliant, well done, I bet you will be smiling for ages over that one x :-)

that is AMAZING. from the point of view of somebody who just finished w1, I can't imaging running for 20 mins (even 10 mins) non-stop! COngratulations!

Boom! Wk5 run3 done 😃

As if I've just completed the dreaded run 3 of week 5 and could've gone on...and in the pooring rain

Wk5 run3 done and feel fab!!

pounding it, but the mind and breathing were all good. When Laura said 2 mins left I actually felt...

wk5 run3 done! Couldn’t avoid hills but still did it!

moving and before I knew it I’d run up and down a massive hill twice for 20 mins non-stop 😳....

Wk5 run3 mixed emotions

for 30/40 seconds to sort my breathing out. But did an extra minute at the end to make up for it....

Wk5 run3 and enjoyed it.

I ran non stop for 20 minutes -I keep saying it to myself so it will sink in. Can't believe how far...
