Bracing myself for Week 4, with more than an apprehensive glance at Week 5 Run 3 !!!

Brace position Paul!!

I did W4R1 this morning. Tougher than I'd expected. Dig deep, take it slow and grit it out. The 3 minute bits were fine, but the last 5. Blimey was I sweating at the end. Good in retrospect, just pretty ropey at the time.

You'll be fine. Just take it easy. I'm trying to avoid thinking about W5R3 until the last possible moment!!

Well done mate, we'll look back on these runs and laugh when we are calming jogging a casual 5K in 6 weeks time!

You're on Paul! See you on the podium!!

Week 5 Run 3 is sooo lovely. You get past the toxic 10 or 15 and get to the happy place and feel like a runner. Its amazing. If you follow the plan you will be doing it! Its fab X

[Paul_Gibbs]

Hopefully this time in a fortnight I will be thinking it's lovely too, I am determined to follow the plan, looking forward to feeling like a "runner."

[Paul_Gibbs in reply to Michele2017]

Don't look Ethel! If I looked before starting the 5min walk I'd never go out
