How did your week 5 runs go?? My last run of 20 minutes was definitely hard but I actually did it!!!

woo hoo - well done you! I completed it too and though hard, did actually enjoy it! I did week 6 run 1 yesterday and although it was running for a lot less time, i actually struggled more. Not sure if i was tired or a bit dehydrated, but will be back on it (hopefully) for tomorrows run x

Ah well done! Yes I just started didn’t the week 6 run 1 today and I agree, It seems almost harder once you stop to get back into a rhythm again! Good luck for tomorrow’s run :)

Week 5/1 is where I am at , feeling really nervous about this one , injured to top of my leg ... next time I run I will of had 4 /5 days rest from walk/running feel guilty... top of leg is feeling so much better 😊 fingers crossed run/walk will hopefully be injury free Tuesday /Wednesday

Not looking forward to it like all other run/walks I have done

Well done you thought 👍🏻👏👏👏

you'll be fine - its as they say on the podcast - its more a mental challenge than physical for run 1, as you've already done 5 mins last time and hopefully the injury will right itself wth rest too. Good luck
