That's the way the programme works..weeks 5 and 6 act as transitional weeks, which aim to progress you from a mix of running and walking into running for longer blocks of time.

I thought that too- then I really struggled with W6 at first. I was warned about it- it bites you on the bum!

I've seen that wk 6 appears difficult, will just follow the plan and take it a run at a time ๐Ÿ˜
