The dreaded wk5 run 3!

[Saartjie]

I DID IT!!! Who'd have thought I would ever be able to run for 20 mins solid? Not me that's for sure. It is TOTALLY psychological. At 5 mins I thought how am I possibly going to do this another 3 times...At 10 mins I thought it might actually be possible but my calf was cramping a bit...At 15 mins with 5 to go I started smiling realising I could actually do this! At 2 mins I might actually have laughed out loud 😂Amazing. I feel great and know now that 5k might actually one day be possible 😎😎😎🏃‍♀️💪

Well done! Lovely feeling isn’t it!?

[Saartjie Graduate in reply to wyersmith]

Amazing! A definite milestone. I think I picked a slow enough pace and even dare I say...enjoyed it 😀

[wyersmith Graduate in reply to Saartjie]

Careful now. Enjoy is strong word...

Brilliant, I completed W5 R3 tonight. Hard going and usual stitch at around 15mins. Here's to week 6

[Saartjie Graduate in reply to I_Can_I_Will]

Well done! I find if I concentrate on breathing more deeply it helps stop stitches. And going veeeeerrrrry sloooowwwly!
