Well done on your run.

Is week 7 a 25 min continuous run or are you doing a different programme?

I am doing ease into 5k , I started the couch to 5k but then found this app that is similar but slightly different time wise and records your distance . Run one of week seven is 5 mins walk, 20 min run , 3 min walk and then 5 min run before cool down

Run 2 is a straight 26 mins and then run 3 is 27 mins x

Thanks , as I said to you the other day I am not racing , just taking it slow and steady and the more running I am doing the better time I am getting . I imagine when I run constantly for 30 minutes that I will be a lot slower but we will see :/
