Good for you! Must be quite an adjustment going from bouncy rubber to tarmac or worse. Let us know how W4 goes. Im saving that for Saturday! 😯

I have just done my first run of week 4 and it was fab! I would deffo say running outside is better and easier than the treadmill too- more scenery to distract you 😂 you can do it! X

I don’t know how you stay upright on a treadmill. I had my gait analysis done o. one and more than once I nearly disappeared off the end

I’ve not had my gait analysis done yet, need to find somewhere that does it in my area

I don’t have a treadmill so I’ve no choice but I do enjoy it passing ducks people saying good morning etc

Congratulations! Week 3 is a step up.

It's great that you're running well outside. I find it easier to settle into the run when there's different things to look at.

Rest well and enjoy week 4.

Thankyou, I’ve completed most of it on a treadmill but it been a bit of a nightmare getting to the gym, I can definitely feel when I’m going up a bit of a hill though 😂

You’re doing great! Every week is a new challenge but take it easy and they’re all very doable. Good luck!

Good Luck! I have got the final run on Week 3 to do tonight after work. I am running on a treadmill and finding week 3 quite tough, I'm dreading week 4 :-(
