Week 3

Anyone else get really mad at the horrible woman for lulling you in to a false sense of security in weeks 1&2 by increasing the run time very gradually... Then nearly killing is by doubling the run time from W2 to W3.

Even though I knew what was coming I still wanted to shout at her! W3 run 3 to do tomorrow.

If you are talking about St Laura, then be prepared to become a devoted follower, bowing your head at the mere mention of her revered name.

( pssst! You can still swear at her if you want to)

I felt the same on Monday when I did W3R1. Was just enjoying 90 sec runs, then all of a sudden 3 minute runs!!!! I must admit felt like shout at her too but restrained myself πŸ˜‚ Not sure I can bare to even peep at what's in store next week on W4! Keep running - we can do it

Yes I remember that one feeling tough. But you did it!

Just finished w2 run 3 and have week 3 on the horizon.. cannot fathom how I will run without stopping for 3 mins. Just can't fathom it.

Keep going Hidden , you've come this far, you can do it. I utterly dreaded those 3min runs but got through them and you will too.

Not what you're looking for?
