Finished 1st week?

Hi, new here:) I just finished my 3rd run of week 1. I found it difficult, I stopped some times, I walked a little bit more some other times.. But finally it was doable.. I'm not sure though, do I have to be extremely confident with week 1 to go to week 2? Or do you think I'm ready? Thanks!:)

Hi and welcome. Well done for completing W1.

If you completed your last run move on. See how it goes with W2, you can always repeat a run.

Make sure you keep your pace slow and steady, slow down some more if you feel like stopping. Trust in the program and you'll be fine.

Good luck and let us know how you get on.

Happy running!

Well done for completing wk1 👏👏i would just keep on going, if you find it tough just repeat the last run, go slowly and steady and you will get there 😀

It was hard but doable therefore you're ready to move on. Next week will probably feel the same. And guess what officially you are no longer a new newbie. Congrats on sticking at W1 - imho the hardest week of all

You've completed the hardest week. Because you got out there and did it and saw it through.

Well done you!

Looking forward to hearing about the end on W2R3 next week. Or the week after ....or when ever it is you get there.

Just keep going and do it at your own pace.

The fact is...you are out there doing it!!
