W5R2

Just completed run 2 of week 5 and have to admit that the first 8 minute run was quite tough until my breathing settled. The second 8 minutes was a bit better. Absolutely delighted to finish. Slightly daunted by the 20 minute run on Friday morning! I feel I need to make sure I have a decent dinner on Thursday night and a good breakfast Friday morning to keep my energy levels up. Any tips? 🏃‍♂️

Well done! Can’t offer any advice as going my 5/2 Friday. Any tips for that run? I’m assuming just keeping is slow?

[Jillyalex in reply to Ripcurlrana71]

Definitely. Keep it slow and steady. I played my music to try and keep distracted. Second run felt much better than the first one. Good luck on Friday and keep us posted on your progress. 🏃‍♀️

Jillyalex it just happens, suddenly you’ve run 20 minutes and you’ve no idea how! I decided “get to 15 and see how you go”, next thing I knew it was 20!

Good luck! You got this x

Great Beth-monkey. I feel it’s a step up week this week but feeling very motivated to get it done. 🏃‍♀️

And you will! Let us know how it goes xx

It is just another workout and actually shorter than the one you have just done.

Stay slow and it is yours for the taking.
