I was surprised how well is went actually. I'm sure it will get harder. Love the app I'm using too - I have Jo Whiley telling me how awesome I am πŸ˜‰

It will get harder but it also gets more rewarding. You're allowed to indulge yourself in this forum - when you have an amazing run tell us all and we'll share in your happiness. We've all had those good runs and we've all had those runs that make you want to stop running forever but whichever you experience (and you will experience both) share it with us all!

It will get harder but most of the time you will just be amazed that you just did it!

Well done, take it nice and steady, do not get carried away; don't even think about pace and distance. The programme is fantastic and it will get you to the end. I found that taking two consecutive rest days between weeks was beneficial; I stuck to that schedule and I'll be doing my last run of week 9 on Weds.Enjoy the experience always think positive.
