Week 2 done but tough.

Well that's it, Week 2 complete but found today very hard. By the end of the 3rd run I was wheezing like an asthmatic tortoise and swearing at poor Jo. Not sure why this one was so hard but might do one more week 2 run over the weekend before tackling those 3 minute runs!!!

I did the same as didn't feel confident moving on but think you would be ok if you didn't repeat once more. Good luck 😀

I found W 3 easier than W 2 because I slowed right down ( nearly going backwards!) relaxed and refused to think about breathing. I am 58 & have never run before and was amazed at managing W3. Now in W4 and know this program works. You can do it. 😀
