Covering less distance?

[ClareP75]

So just done first run of week 3 - is it normal to cover less distance than in week 2?

Hi Clare, I'm on week 3 and I covered less distance too, slightly shorter time as well 😊

[ClareP75]

Thanks Paula - just felt like if I can walk further whats the point but I guess I just stick with the programme and see what happens. Good luck with week 3!

Running uses different muscles to walking. You've been walking for a good few years (I guess) but you are only just learning to run 😀. Stick with the programme, it works, and take it slooooow and steady. That way you will complete in style and uninjured.

I did first run of week 3 today and found the same ... felt like I was going so slow!

[ClareP75 in reply to Lou68L]

Yes and if my head over a hedge looks like I'm walking...

Hahaha! Genuinely laughing out loud ! I think my style is more clumsy marionette puppet ..

Exactly the same for me - but then back up slightly in week 4!
