Just completed this run but struggled. Has anybody else had this? Thought it would be a breeze so a little disappointed.

I think week 6 is a funny old week. After the elation of getting to week5 run 3 it feels like it should be so easy but its actually still hard. You are not alone. Rest up and take the next one steadily and you will get there :)

Thanks ju-ju, it’s nice to know it’s not just me I will stick with it and do W6R3 after my rest day and hopefully it will be fine 👌

Week 6 is the toughest. After that you’re batting down hill 👍😃🏃‍♀️💪✔️

Disappointed! Ey? You’ve been running for just six teeny weeny weeks. Cut yourself some slack 😃

Good luck for the next sesh. Slow and steady

... but you did it!! Well done you! 😄 Some runs just feel harder than others. Go lovely and slow, then slower, oh yes & slower!! You can be a racing gazelle in the future, gambolling snail time for now. 😃
