Well I now understand what everyone was saying about this one!
It just seemed really hard work tonight. Best bit was for the last 5 min run. The first 5 min run was tough and the 8 min run seemed to go on for ages! On a plus note I did manage to do more distance so must have been quicker.
Glad that ones done, onwards and upwards!!
Onwards and upwards definitely... 😀
Definitely. Looking forward to runs with no stops (walks) x
I found this one hard as well and it was really warm I was a lovely shade of red. Good luck with the next one🙂
Definitely a hard one and hot, I sweated a lot today! I think this one has been my least enjoyable, but done now and can look forward to next one x
But you did it! You're getting stronger everyday.
Yes definitely. Onwards and upwards!
Yay!
I think it's hard to go back to the walk breaks after doing the first long run at the end of W5... But I think that's a deliberate move by Laura to make a point that actually it's easier to keep going than to stop and then have to re-find the rhythm.
Keep up the great work 🏃🏻😊
Yes definitely think youre right there x
Bravo Slinkyminky you're cracking these. Going to try it tomorrow myself. Fingers crossed!
I'll have my fingers crossed for you Bamb.
Let us know how you get on x
After wk5 r3 I thought yay I've cracked it, then after this run it was erm maybe not. It got easier week 7 when you don't have to keep stopping/starting. Good luck with the rest of your runs.☺
Thanks for this post Slinkyminky, I too did this run yesterday and was not happy at the end of it. It was my worst one to date and felt grumpy all day and absolutely knackered! I thought after W5 R3 I could rule the world and found this not to be the case!
Anyway on to W6 R2 tomorrow, hopefully this one will be better for both of us.
I'll be doing wk6 run2 tomorrow too! Fingers crossed it's better
Good luck with yours and let me know how you get on x
