Completed 20 minutes running non stop , 5 weeks ago I was struggling to run for a minute. This programme is brilliant and this run is about over coming the mental barriers we all have when we reach this week . As the programme says take it slow , we can work on pace and distance once we have graduated ๐

Well done. Onwards and upwards.
Did this a few weeks back at start of January and now having graduated run 30+ minutes at least twice (sometimes three times) a week
Looking to keep the running up , realistically I need to run for 38/39 to hit 5 k ๐คฃ
Hi Bess128 iโm about to start week 8 - 28 mins tomorrow and yet just a few weeks ago I was on 1 min runs. Like you I probably will need to run for 35 - 40 mins to do 5k but I keep it slow and steady! Good luck, itโs a great feeling. Iโm 60 years a โnon - runnerโ ๐
