Well. That was a sweaty one!!

I was nervous about the jump up to running for 3 minutes. It was tough, really tough. But I managed it! Although beetroot face was out in full force today πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Well Done Laura.

I'm on my W3 R1 tonight. I'm nervous about the jump too, I was contemplating doing week 2 again, because i can't see my self doing 3 minutes. I only just manage the 90 seconds lol.

I will have a go and may need to stay on week 3 until i have it mastered.

Keep us posted :)

Yeah give it a go!! You might surprise yourself, I did. I just had to remind myself to slow down sometimes so I could pace myself properly. It was a struggle. But I'm glad I tried. Good luck tonight!x

Yay, go you! Week 3 was one of the hardest for me and beetroot was my colour too! I remember writing in my journal for week 3 "What? 3 minutes? All at once?!!!"

You toughed it out, you did it! Just keep on going, just like you are and run by run your body will be stronger and stronger. Really well done :)

Good going! Yeah, I dreaded it, too, but each week I'm amazed that I can take the next step up. It's a brilliantly designed programme! Keep up the good work! 😊

Not what you're looking for?
