Well, I completed week 3 on Sunday with no problems, but I was daunted by the W4 programme. I know I'm going to need to take it easy in two weeks from now (playing the lead in a musical for a week) so wondered whether to repeat W3.
But I bit the bullet and decided to run W4 at lunchtime. And I made it! I slowed down my running pace substantially, which helped no end - I'd been aiming for 6:00/km but regularly ran 5:25-5:45. This time I listened to my app and stuck around 5:57/km.
I mis-programmed my app and forgot to put the third interval in there, but worked it out as I went along so that I ran the 3/5/3/5 correctly.
This is the first run where I've felt like I've achieved something! Hooray me!

Playing the lead in a musical? Wow! Are you famous?
But well done on the run and you are very fast! If you're young and/or have run before then it's fine but our mantra here is to run slowly and then slower still. Just saying 🙂 But regardless, you've done brilliantly and you've achieved soooo much.
Ha! Thanks both, I wasn't meaning to plug this, but since you ask ...
The musical is "Mack and Mabel" and I'm playing Mack Sennett. It's an amateur production in Hungerford from 15-18 February and tickets can be obtained from hungerfordtheatre.com/buy-t...
Last time it was done professionally Michael Ball did play Mack
