Holy crap!

Week4 run 1 today and it was hard! That last 5 minutes felt like forever. I can't seem to focus my mind so the time seems a long time. Any tips?

Did you manage the run though? If so awesome job :)

I got bored around that time and started listening to podcasts to distract myself rather than actually focus on running. Now I listen to that and concentrate on breathing if im struggling. Could something similiar work for you?

Ooh I just listen to music so that is something that could work. I listen to podcasts when I'm out and about so do enjoy them. I managed the run and am still looking forward to tomorrow's run. Think I'm gonna get up early and go before it starts getting hot. How you getting on?
