What sort of distance are you achieving? Week 2 and it's about 2.1 miles which I guess will increase once runs get longer. .

I've just finished Week 2 and I'm doing exactly the same - 2.08 miles/3.35km. That's including the walking.

I was just so desperate to get my running bits done I didn't think to track it till my 4th week with my boyfriend. He said we only did like 3-45 km. It takes me nearly 40 to do the 5km run now. I'm just the tortoise in the story! Ha ha

Don't bother about the distance you're covering. Forget about speed or distance til you've graduated. Finishing the sessions is all you need to do. Don't get hung up about the other two, they're not important

Have fun!

really don't worry to much about distance at this stage , nice to know but all you need to do is run the timed periods at what ever pace you need to achieve them :)

Sounds like you doing great so far ,keep at it :D
