Week 6 Run 3 Complete!

[Aquila12]

After telling the gremlins to shut up all night, I went for the run and even though I felt like death by the end (so awful that im surprised no one called an ambulance when they saw me stagger up the street 😂) I DID IT. I was too tired to cheer but when Michael johnson said I'm a real runner now I had a huge smile on my face

Nearly there now. Soon ill graduate

Fab, well done big achievment loved finishing week 6 as began to feel I'd finish the programme. I'm just ahead going into wk 9 now.

[Aquila12 Graduate in reply to Gabster2]

I agree. It's the first time I've actually thought I'm going to graduate. I mean I wondered if I could but today I said I would graduate. whats involved in week 9

[Gabster2 Graduate in reply to Aquila12]

3 30min runs. Always a bit daunting upping the distance but getting used to the longer runs now. Probably Fri when I do it as work busy. BTW week 7 a good week as you start it knowing you managed to run it end of wk 6.

[Aquila12 Graduate in reply to Gabster2]

Sheesh I thought I'd only have to run for thirty minutes once 😂

Soon you'll know you can complete thirty minutes so well done

[SueKen Graduate]

Well done! Onwards together into week 7 👍

[Aquila12 Graduate in reply to SueKen]

Thanks Have you just done run 3 on week 6?

[SueKen Graduate in reply to Aquila12]

I did it yesterday 🙂 probably starting week 7 at the weekend, as currently on holiday.

[Aquila12 Graduate in reply to SueKen]

Oh ok. Good luck to us both

Oh how I love to hear Michael Johnson's voice tell me I can slow down and walk! I actually laugh when he says 'Keep going you're doing great' because I think in my head 'you wouldn't day that if you could see me' lol

[Aquila12 Graduate in reply to Pauline17]

Haha ive thought that exact thing 😂 and "what does he know? Hes an actual runner, he wouldn't be here dying". It makes me wonder if I should use a different trainer who I could imagine struggling along side me lol. But I like michael Johnson's voice spurring me on so ill forgive him 😂😂

[Baz62 Graduate in reply to Pauline17]

Snap lol , love his voice

I did w6r3 last night too - well done.

I made the mistake of changing my route and my first 2k were all uphill, I honestly felt that people were going to walk past me but I did it

[Aquila12 Graduate in reply to Daftpooly]

Wow well done. I can barely run on flat ground 😂

[Koraline Graduate]

Good going. This will be me tomorrow morning I hope, so it's good to know others are conquering their gremlins at the same point.

Onwards to graduation!

[Aquila12 Graduate in reply to Koraline]

How did it go?

[Cside14 Graduate]

Well done

[Clh232 Graduate]

I have just completed it too. Felt exactly the same when MJ told me I was a runner and was smiling like a slightly mad woma I also might have told him where to go at 24 mins! I'm so proud of myself and really didn't think is be able to do it, especially as runs 1 nd 2 in week were so very, very hard. Get us!!
