I actually felt I could have run a bit longer if I wanted to... is it because it’s easier running on treadmill compared to outdoor or am I really getting used to running?
Can’t wait for Wednesday for my next run now.
Just looked at week 4 timings and a bit scared. But hey, didn’t think I would be running W3 runs this comfortably when I started. So I am mentally coaching myself that I will be just fine with W4 runs too 😀

That mental coaching is half the battle, and the other half is you getting fitter. I don’t know if the treadmill is easier. At least you don’t have to cope with inclines unless you choose too, and there are no kerbs or puddles to navigate round, or prevailing winds, or slippery ice patches.
It doesn’t really matter, it’s just great that you’re enjoying it. Just remember to keep slowand steady.
Keep it steady and you will be fine... you will get stronger with each run anyway...!
The treadmill and the gym is a controlled situation... outside you have little control.. variance in location, surfaces, weather etc. Ever the same route outside, is never the same. is is why some folk struggle when they make the transition from indoors to outdoors..but outdoors.. well..it is amazing
