I don't normally post but always read the forum and taking all your advise got me through the run today. Felt better than I thought it would although was thinking about stopping when Laura said only 2 minutes to go so managed to see it through and even did one extra minute. So on to the next one on Sunday/Monday and will keep it slow and steady and trust in the programme.

Good for you & well done keeping going i did the same run this morning & also managed an extra 1min 😊so heres to week6 👍

Well done you, I bet you're thrilled, W5R3 is quite a milestone! You can be justifiably very proud of yourself. Going from running for a few minutes feels too much, but you did it!!
