Hi, I've noticed people talking about wk5 saying it is two 8 min run but I checked to see what I will be doing next wk (wk5) and my app says 5min, 3min, 5min, 3min, 5min - this week was 3min, 5min, 3min, 5min.
Confused..... Wk5: Hi, I've noticed people... - Couch to 5K
Confused..... Wk5

actually I've just double checked and it is 3 x 5min in run - phew that seems better, although still different to the two 8 min runs some people are explaining?

Well, it's a mashup week This week you will run different every run-day. It goes as follows: (*means run, otherwise walk)
W5 D1- 5*/3/5*/3/5*
W5 D2- 8*/5/8*
W5 D3- 20*
Hope it helped
As the previous commenters have said, there are three different runs for week 5. This link is a helpful, if not a little scary, visual tool that is buried among the pinned posts. I printed it and kept it on the fridge so I knew what was coming next. Good luck with the upcoming runs, you're over halfway now!

Sorry to break this to you.....you do three different runs on weeks 5 and 6, the good news being, you only need to run each run once. Don't worry about any of them, you'll be fine.
I love the fact that by the time I finish wk5 I can run 20 min none stop Although getting there feels very daunting!!
I think everyone is scared by the 20 minute run, take it nice and slow and you'll do it
I'm the same, I'm a week behind you but I'm already thinking about it!!
We just need to trust in Laura and repeat many times to ourselves that we CAN DO IT

You can do it! I did it on Saturday and to be honest the thought of it was a lot worse than it actually was!!
All the best 😀
thanks all, Wk completed yesterday, here I come wk5!!
