5 min warm up then 8 minute run, 5 minute walk then 8 minute run. Finish off with 5 minute cool down walk.

You'll be fine, Kaydenmummy - it's a very well designed programme- just trust in it and in yourself- if I can do it, everyone can :)

Do not scare yourself! Focus on now... not next!

Know how far you have come, and know how far you will go :)

Hi KM, take a look at all the names of those that have replied to you. That's right, most have 'Graduate' badge alongside. Do you think that we're all super-human runners? Nope. We all went through the C25K and felt the same as you in W5.

But you know, Laura has been training your body to complete W5r2 and W5r3. It'll be the gremlins in your head that make you doubt yourself. But you are ready, and you can do this.

Slow and steady, and picture the absolute rush and sense of achievement and feeling on a high as Laura says 'That's it, you're done' after 20 minutes. Priceless.
