Week 7... amazing!!

I think it's pretty tough at this point, all the runs are longer ones with no walk breaks, which is a bit of a mental game. You're likely running on tired legs from the last run and it's hard to tell them to keep going. There are good days and bad, hopefully the next one is better! Either way - you can do it!! Take an extra rest day if you need it.

But you did it! Well done! I'm doing it tonight. Bit warm for me! But at least I have a new vest to wear!

at least one of the runs in week 7 gets people. You are lucky you have got it out of the way on the 1st :-) mine was run 2.

Its not because you can't do it - for some reason the mind just decides to fuel the doubt fire and suddenly the legs don't work.

run 2 will be so much better and you will wonder what this was all about. good luck & keep us posted :-)
