Finished week 6 this morning - toxic 10 was awful but as soon as my breathing settled and my legs realised what was happening it all came together 🎉

Can’t believe that I can now run for 25 minutes, never thought I’d be able to achieve this-looking forward to consolidating these runs before moving on to week 8 😊

Well done Nellie😊... thats brilliant..

don't push too hard during the first few mins let it build and relax into it, as Oldfloss suggests. That 'toxic ten' tough feeling won't cause you any trouble then...

Yes, Wk 7 is good practise at something you know you can do. Nice steady relaxed running. Go you😊xx

Such a great place to be. Well done. You can start to settle into the longer runs now and find your own style and pace. I really enjoyed Week 7. Go for it 🙋🏻
