[Sharonbagpi]

Hi I have just done week 8 run 2 and only just doing over 3k so next run is 30mins not sure I will do 5k did anyone achieve 5k on the first run of week 9 this is today's run x

Nope! I was in your position and suspect many others were as well.

Just get through the course to the end and then do the Couch to 5k+ Stepping Stones which helps increase your pace by running to the music. I just posted a separate thread on my experience with this if of interest.

Phew I am just about to start week 8 and so far am just managing 4.2 including the walking!

[DcCardiff in reply to Sussexmalc]

That’s a great pace in my view! I was only at 3.7/3.8k.

I have just done W8R3 today and will not be doing 5k by week 9 🐌

You will be buried under replies...so many posts about this.. many, many folk never achieve 5K in 30 minutes ever...some folk do the 5K in Graduation week... some don;t..more don't than do

Just relax and enjoy the trip to the podium
