Week 8, run 2.. I can't believe it!

I really can't believe I've made it this far, I have stuck to the program and completed every run without fail which I never thought I'd do. Yesterday I did week 8 run 2 and didn't stop when Sarah told me to, I continued for another 4 minutes because I felt that I still had energy left, and when I checked I'd ran for 3 miles, not including the warm up walk!

I've just done W8 R2 too!! High 5!! Although I stopped just as soon as Michael let me, no extra 4 minutes, no sirree. Anyone else find the first half harder than the second half? It seems longer for some reason ☺

Well done!! Yes I definitely found the first half harder, I always start off thinking I don't enjoy this, I'm never going to finish, but then quite like the second half.
