[Polly2810]

Ok so I took notice of all the posts that said this one was a toughie. I did it but the second run felt a bit of a struggle legs feeling tired. But done and dusted. Next one Thursday. 😊

Well done my first of WK6 is tomorrow 0610. So pleased for you, you are an example to me.

Good luck. You'll be fine.

[Indigogirl Graduate in reply to tfcmagpie]

I'll be with you tomorrow. Slightly frustrated as I had scheduled it for today, but not feeling 100%, so thought best leave it a day. No worries, the run will still be there tomorrow!

[Polly2810 Graduate in reply to Indigogirl]

Another day will make no difference..it will be waiting for you 😊

[Polly2810 Graduate in reply to tfcmagpie]

Don't use me as an example much better ones to choose on here!! 😂

[bareliz]

I know what you mean. I think (for some of us at least) that our bodies are getting tired at this point. You are doing really well and should be proud of yourself.

[Polly2810 Graduate in reply to bareliz]

I am really pleased and totally surprised that I can actually keep going!! Also not hating it so that's a bonus!!

[bareliz in reply to Polly2810]

That is a bonus 😁

See, each one is going in the bank....

[Polly2810 Graduate in reply to Hidden]

Still feel like a fraud though as so very slow!!

[Tricky2836]

Speed is not important just getting one foot in front of the other is enough of a challenge for now... Well done 😀

[Polly2810 Graduate in reply to Tricky2836]

Yeah I know just have to keep believing I am on wk 6!!

[Martin_Rose Graduate]

Nice one mate, I never doubted you, BTW slow is good. 😁

[Polly2810 Graduate in reply to Martin_Rose]

Slow is the word!!!

[Polly2810 Graduate in reply to Mummycav]

[Mummycav Administrator Graduate in reply to Mummycav]

P.s....this is a surprise for most people...which, again, I was thankful to hear coz then I knew it was not just me....that's why I love this forum...it's just fantastic!!!

[Polly2810 Graduate in reply to Mummycav]

Me too it is THE BEST!! I'm just taking it run at a time if I do it then great if i don't then will just repeat. 😊

[Mummycav Administrator Graduate in reply to Polly2810]

That's what I do 👍🏻

[rolysmate Graduate]

well done you and yes this one is a bit of a toughy, I think it's after the exuberance of w5r3 we go out feeling a bit cocky and bang it catches us.

But it's onwards and upwards from here, just take it nice and steady and you've got a steady run to the finish line and before you know it you'll be on that podium

[Polly2810 Graduate in reply to rolysmate]

Thanks..Not believing yet...still feel I am just playing at this running lark, but guess I must be doing ok cos I am not having to stop and am completing each run as am told. But you lot are just so full of encouraging remarks it just pushes me on!! Don't want to let you all down 🤣

[rolysmate Graduate in reply to Polly2810]

what's not to believe, you're doing fantastic and just in case you don't know it you are a runner

Keep going as you are and before you know it you'll be scrambling up on to that podium

[Polly2810 Graduate in reply to rolysmate]

Can only hope!!! Am enjoying it too so win win!!

[Guavafisg]

Glad I'm not the only one who found that tough. What progress though!

[Polly2810 Graduate in reply to Guavafisg]

Ah yes compared to a few weeks back we are making really good progress. Again not sure about the 25 looming! 😂

[Burnleygirl]

I completed week 5 today, struggled to run the full 20 mins but I couldn't run 60 seconds 5 weeks ago!

[Polly2810 Graduate in reply to Burnleygirl]

Well done! Keep with it ...I completed wk6 yesterday...25 mins in the rain, who would have thought it?!? 😊
