Wow! Super pleased to have completed that... was hard tonight... my legs ached, my pace was clumsy, I felt tired and hot... BUT my breathing was better controlled and I managed to complete it so all in all I did ok... is it bed time yet ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ™ˆ

At least the sunny countryside was beautiful ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿผ

What a glorious scene! And well done on your run! Sometimes getting through these wobbly ones gives more satisfaction than the easy ones! ๐Ÿ˜€

Thatโ€™s true, pretty chuffed I powered through it and kept going. Felt like my body was throwing a thousands excuses to stop but just kept on going.

Canโ€™t believe how good this programme is โ˜บ๏ธ

Certainly does and helps to โ€˜trust the programmeโ€™ I keep telling myself they wouldnโ€™t make it longer if I couldnโ€™t do it... which I need to remember for the next 4 runs of 25 mins ๐Ÿ˜ฌ I can and I will ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿผ

I understand the clumsy thing, my running feels so alien and not at all graceful!

Yes have had a few suggest that I should turn the music off and concentrate on my foot fall so am going to try that as it makes a lot of sense ๐Ÿ˜‰
