Hi all, I have just finished week 2 and I am worried about not being able to run for 3 minutes in week 3. Has everybody else managed it without a problem?

Was exactly same as you last week. Now have one run to go to complete week 3 and now worrying about week 4.

Week 3 has been a good one for me.

One week at a time.

Thank you so much, that is quite a relief to hear. I am sure you will be great at week 4, you have come this far already.

Don’t waste your time worrying!!! Each run you do prepares you for the next, you’re becoming stronger after every run.

I’m week 4, and doing run 3 tomorrow, each run hurts and I question if I can complete the full 9 weeks - but after each run I have the biggest smile on my face!

You absolutely can do this!!! xx

Believe me when you get to week 9, the first 5 minutes fly by... I wonder where it goes as I'm getting into my stride
