W5R3 Done!!

Redesign_required profile image

Having put it off for a couple of days due to lack of faith in myself that I would manage the 20 min run, my other half gave me a push in the right direction and yes I did manage it yesterday, what a great feeling of achievement. Woo Hoo onto week 6 tomorrow! :-)

Brilliant! Well done - that really is the biggest hurdle and you've just taken it😎 Watch out for week 6 though, it trips some people up😈

WELL DONE- the best feeling of achievement- I can remember feeling quite emotional at W5R3 done, having been pretty scared of it. Don't let W6R1 get to you either- take it steady, you can do it :)

Well done, I did my 20 mins yesterday too, it felt great, a real landmark time for some reason.

You better believe it!  It's happening,  you're doing it!😊

Have faith in the programme and yourself!  It's the best thing ever!  

Go steady, run nice and slowly and you will be fine
