Bit of an anticlimax as it was very short. Didn't even get warm.

Oh dear! Can you try to go a bit faster next time, that should help to warm you up which is needed now it has turned colder. Keep going, & remember this run when/if you have one you struggle with later in the programme. Happy running :-)

Did you have the podcast at the wrong speed? You should be out there for around half an hour total including your warm up/ down..... 23 mins total for week three.

Well done :)

I found it shorter today as well (though apparently not quite as easy as you!!) - when I added it up, the podcast is only 23 minutes this week as it finishes with a 3 minute walk and doesn't have another 5 minutes cool down after that!! (but I did it anyway so I could finish my route!)

Was out for just over 25 minutes, wasn't home by time it finished so walked extra few minutes, think it just when you have been doing 6 or 8 runs 4 seems a bit easy lol maybe am getting fitter x
