Felt a lot better during this run so decided to run on for a bit. Managed 5.4k. Feel good after it but I know it’s not in the programme. To be honest the hill near the end were tough. In fact I probably could have walked up them quicker than I was running. But I did keep the running motion going. Who would have thought it 7 weeks ago I could not run for 60 seconds without stopping and tonight I’ve just ran for 40 mins 😃😱

It’s an amazing program. Well done.

We are only on W4 R2 next time out, but like you we found it easy to run back to the car. We do take a breather of two or three minutes, but then another five minutes running. As long as it is in line with the jog, we think we benefit from it.
