[Meintheuniverse]

I just completed week 5 run 3!!! I am so delighted as I really struggled with week 5 run 2 so when I heard what I had to do today I thought I'll never be able to do this!!! But I did!!! Am Loving this journey!!!

[Inspiredmum Graduate]

Well done! It's a wonderful feeling isn't it? I've also just completed week 5 run 3 this morning as well. Makes you feel like a proper runner!

Thank you Inspiredmum! Nice to 'meets someone at the same stage as me, Well done to you too!!! Yes, felt a bit off saying I was going for a run when I was walking in the middle, now I really feel I can say I'm going for a run - yipeeeeee!!!

Thank you Pollyp1! I suspect I will 😊.

[Usain_Balti Graduate]

Isn't it the greatest feeling?

Could you ever have imagined doing this when you first started?

You really are a runner now.

There's no going back, I'm afraid you're as daft as the rest of us!

[Meintheuniverse Graduate in reply to Usain_Balti]

It really is a great feeling, and no, I could not imagine how O could possibly run for 20 minutes without stopping - feels quite miraculous! So glad to be considered as daft as the rest of you 😀. Blimey, I'm a runner!!!

[Meintheuniverse Graduate in reply to Oldfloss]

An excellent feeling! Remember you're well over half way there now and you won't ever have to do such a big jump (in minutes from 8-20) again!

[Meintheuniverse Graduate in reply to TheTortoiseTeacher]

Thank you TheTortoiseTeacher, that's really good to know.

[Aldlib Graduate]

It seems like such a big jump before you do it, so it feels like a great achievement when you realise you can? Well done.

[Meintheuniverse Graduate in reply to Aldlib]

Thanks Aldlib, so true!!!

Brilliant - Well done you! I've just hit Week 7 where there are no breaks from now on in.......bit nervous as the breaks are a bit of a comfort blanket! I keep thinking back to the W5r3 and it keeps me going as, not sure if you are the same, but I never ever thought I would manage it and I did!! Fantastic, keep going x

[Meintheuniverse Graduate in reply to carrie73]

Thanks carrie73, no I didn't think I could make it either! Bravo for hitting week 7 - what an achievement!! Yes the breaks were comforting, though now I feel like I can genuinely consider myself a runner. Keep up the good work.

[McFitty Graduate]

How I love week5 run 3 posts! Well done indeed! That ecstatic feeling is just the first of many now. You ARE a runner. Enjoy your journey to graduation... and beyond

[Meintheuniverse Graduate in reply to McFitty]

Thanks McFitty, I will do my best, but if there are more ecstatic feelings to come, I think I will manage!!!!
