Week 7 Run 2

Just completed week 7 run 2 but went a bit over to prepare myself for the next one. That’s my cool down speed 4.0 mph. My run speed is only 6.5 mph. What speeds does everyone else do ?

I did my earlier week runs on treadmill and I think i was running at 4-5 , running on treadmill used to scare me so for me its a confidence thing , I've got week 7 run 2 tomorrow but run outside now

That is great, getting all the building strength and stamima benefits.

Plenty time for the rest a little further on your journey.

We are all different and it’s your journey.You against you.

Nothing else really matters.

Enjoy.🌟👏👏

So long as you can still hold a conversation, then your pace is okay, but we had an 83 year old lady graduate last year and we have had speedy 20 year old lads here, so we don't enourage direct comparison, as it is pretty futile and some find it discouraging.

It is covered in the guide to the plan healthunlocked.com/couchto5...
