Finished Week 5

Just done week 5 run 3 and feeling mighty chuffed! A lovely autumn morning, blue almost cloudless sky but chilly and lots of dew sparkling on the grass.

The prospect of 20 minutes was daunting, but just carried on. Fully wired up with heartbeat monitor to try to make sure nothing went wrong.

Can't wait for week 6 on Monday morning.

Well done, you are well on your way now. Week six was still tough for me,and I found myself wonder when it would get easier, then magically it did!

I hope you are celebrating your success you deserve it!

Wow, u did it alright! Great achievement and the start of increasing running and leaving walk breaks behind! I found just running was much better for me as walking just meant I had to get my legs going again. You must have found a good pace to run for ur fitness levels which is great. Nice and steady again for week 6, it is challenging but more than achievable 😊

Well done... I did W5R3 on Thursday. It's a great feeling when you complete that 20 minutes, isn't it? I'm just about to head out for W6R1.
