I know the feeling. I am waiting to do week5 run 3. I bought my first pair of proper running shoes yesterday and can't wait to try them on my third run of Wk5 . Excited to see if I can do my first 20 minute run .

Ah - the bug has got to you too! I go to bed so excited for my next run and have to force myself NOT to run when I go for a walk! Would never have thought it possible when I started the programme! Well done πŸ‘ and enjoy πŸ€—

Go and do some squats. Then some lunges. Then some more squats.
