Don't know about the weather with you but here in the far North East of Scotland it is driech! Cold, drizzly and foggy - but I still went for my run.

Got to the running track only to find it was invaded by the kids of the local Academy dam it! So today was my first street run and didn't go to badly. Had to think on my feet a non hill route and can say wasn't too out if breath today so things are improving.

Nicely done. Keeping it going in spite of a potential setback.

It's good having the half way bell on the app, so you know when to turn back.

How are you finding the step up to W2?

The 2nd run on week 2 was better than the first, I think having the 2 minute walk helps a lot, not too sure how week 3 will go though.

If you feel you are struggling on W3 just repeat the week before moving on. I think you will be ok as women are more determined that men to complete their tasks (yes I’m a man🙈). You got this, remember that you are awesome 😉
