Done it

I finally completed week 4. Running for 3 mins is really easy now. I can run for 5 but still seems a bit hard. Hopefully it will become easier after week 5.

Yea, it's a great feeling. The 3 min runs are OK. Just finished week 3.Important to have running buddies to keep going.

I have no running buddies. Do you run together? I agree though it does feel good

Hi Evie I have just completed week 4 this morning,so happy because last week I thought I would be doing week 3 again as week 4 seemed so much harder.

I have been running for nearly 9 years but have had a knee injury for 3 months I was making it worse because every time it felt a bit better I was running on it,so I'm taking things really slow.

Every run is an achievement.

Also I'm an older runner
