Wk3 ready or not? That is the question?

I've been doing the c25k for a few weeks and just finished w2r3 and not sure whether to do this for one more wk or move on up to wk3!!

On my last run I remembered reading on the posts to slow down then slow down even more which helped as I was finding my low legs just didn't like to restart after the walking parts also started using some compression socks which I found helps (thinking of getting shares in the local sports shops as I seem to be in there every weekend 😊)

But have to say I'm enjoying the challenge as I didn't think I could do wk1! And that 1st 60 seconds was the longest 60 seconds ever!!!! ☺️

So W3 watch out I'm coming to get u!!

If you've done W2R3 then yes, you are ready for W3 - Laura says so! Good luck!

If you finished the runs you're ready to move on. Hurrah!

You go... and you get it! Move on, and keep it at that pace :)

That's the spirit ! Hope it goes well.

All fired up! Good to see you are moving up. Keep up the good work.

Yes, run very slowly. Going nice and slowly has so many advantages. C25k is all about finishing each session.

Enjoy!
