ooh now when I got this far previously If I recall correctly Laura explains in W5R1 that the next run is W5R2 then W5R3 (sorry if that sounds a bit odd putting it so simply) as for W6 I never made it beyond W5R3 the 20 mins run :-( and look forward to seeing the replies you'll get here :-)

hi mrstickle

thanks for the reply i think i have it all sorted now apart from actually doing it

hope you have more luck this time ill look for your posts

i can see that week 6 and 7 are a big step up

like walking up my local mountain Pen y fan which i have done many times then last year did Snowdon and 2 other peaks close to Snowdon last may

which was a bit of a shock to the system but i did it but want to go back again this summer and maybe be able to see something

as last year weather was abysmal horizontal rain and hail and fog

But at least did not have to look at any sheer drops

Thanks 2fat2run, glad you sorted. love Snowdon but it's a bit of a trek from ours, memorable times doing/attempting the 15 Peaks some time back :-)

So, I followed the podcasts and the runs aren't the same for each of the 3 times for the next few weeks. So you do R1, then R2, then R3. You don't need to do R1 3 times, R2 3 times etc. Does that make sense? It does in my head...xx
