So there we were, my running buddy and I, (she’s on W3) chatting through our 5 min warm-up walk, as we do and then when we started running I foolishly thought mine was 5 mins when actually it was 10 (not listening to Sarah...big mistake). So of course I started too fast (again, and despite all
sound advice from this Forum) and by the second 10 mins I was really struggling, but somehow managed to get to the end.
It’s all psychological, I think. The brain says “5 mins is a pushover when you’ve done 20” and the body says “hang on, this is 10mins, not 5!”
Quite looking forward to W6R3 on Friday, as it’s 25mins non-stop and my brain will definitely be echoing Sarah with “light jog.”
Btw, my friend says she found W3 easier than W2, just for interest.
