Yes. Yes you can.

Week 4 is still the future for me yet but I will get there too.

Thank you. You will get there before you know it.

We will all manage it I'm sure. Hoping the thought is worse than the reality x

Ooh, good luck. Keep me posted . When are doing it?.

I totally believe in the programme as it's worked every week so far but it's such a big jump.

You can do it too 🏃

I have just done r2 today. I will do r3 on Monday. Today I had to go really slow to get through and the temptation to quit was there but I kept telling myself just to the lampost or just to that car then before I knew it I had done it. Going to try that to get through the big one!!!! When do you do yours?

Good Luck redfraggle. You can reward yourself with a Friday evening drink. That assumes you are not tee total of course 😀

Oh dear....I hope I can do it, I will employ your method of reaching the next tree or the next boat ( running along the canal tonight)

The reward of a nice G&T might help too.....😊

Well done you. I start week 5 on Sunday so my 20 min one will be Thursday. I might change it to Friday though as Thursdays are always hectic and I don't get in from work until 7 ish. Thinking I may need all my energy.

Good Luck Monday, keep us posted. Nice to chat to someone in roughly the same place.

Enjoy your weekend 😃

I did it, I did it....don't think my run pace is much different from the fast walk pace and hunnie wasn't all that impressed....but I was!!

I don't think he could do it, he cycles...a whole different ball game
