Well done and I echo that - I think after last run we all expected a run with breaks to be easier . My point was starting the last 5 min run - my legs were tight and like jelly but pushed through the """ I may have to stop gremlins at 2 mins into it and like you , thought about running for 20 mins last week .

A few of us on here at the same point -- go us !!! All be very proud πŸ€—πŸ€—πŸ€—πŸ€—

Well done Julie, you can do it. Think we're all listening to the slow and steady way. Well done lovely 😊

in reply to quirkybee

Thank you ....definitely listening to the slow n steady I have no interest in speed at moment just the stamina to be able to complete the program and eventually do a park run! Xxx

That's the way πŸ€— I'm going to do my first park run soon, looking forward to it.....I think, haha x

in reply to quirkybee

Good luck with that .... keep us posted x Not quite sure where my nearest one is I don't think there's a local one which is a shame but I could check n drive I'll be dragging My MrM along with me but he'll be standing on the sidelines I haven't managed to convince him to run ...,. Yet 😊

Well done Julie. It's a funny run this one I agree it caught me out big style .But we did it !Congratulations &Well done

in reply to Rockette

lol it sure was a mission 😬 I'm guessing it's designed to pull us down a peg or two πŸ˜‚and remind us we still need grit and determination to keep plodding along πŸ˜‚ loving the program and the forum x
