Did w5r1 today. Felt so proud.

Had a look at run 2 and 3 this week. 🙂 my goodness, going to have to work extra hard.

Any tips from you pro c25k masters as the runs increase to 20mins? 🤗👣🖒

Also, what kind of distance should I be achieving in week 5 runs? I did 3.7km for run1 today... How does this compare?

Hi Zara, well done on your run today. Don't worry about distances at this stage, as you progress to the longer 'non-stop' runs you need to ensure you pace yourself. Don't go off too fast, just take it nice and steady, get your breathing sorted, don't panic and let your legs do the running. You have been building up to this week and will be able to do it. Good Luck and enjoy.

Well done, Zara. Just take your time to do the time allocated. Distance gains will come later.

I have that one tomorrow. Keep reminding myself how hard week 2 felt compared to week 1 and I did that.

Good luck. You're right. Come this far so can keep going! 👉🖒I need to sort my breathing ad suggested above. That helps but I tend to pant. Didn't think breathing was so hard!
