Week 5 run 3

Week 5 run 3 complete! So relieved to have reached this milestone. Was so worried leading up to it that I'd fail and it would knock me but I read all the posts and took on the advice (and kept reminding myself that it was a mental challenge as much as a physical) and I did it. I know it sounds daft but it wasn't more difficult it was just longer so like everyone says just break it up into chunks and keep going. I did plan my route - went to a nice big open FLAT park. :)

Well done! You are absolutely right, it is a mental challenge as well as a physical one. Keep going!
