I was really nervous about the step up to 5 mins running at week 4. Sunday morning, I set out for week 4, run 1 after a day lifting heavy garden posts - it didn't go well (back pain). So I redid it tonight after work - the run sections were very slow but I did it! Feeling a real sense of achievement.

I’m due to go up to week 4 and the 5 minute run worries me, thinking about doing week 3 again.
Hi
Well done!!!!
I did W3 twice and have done W4 R1 twice. I'm finding the 5 mins run pretty tough. My legs feel so heavy and I have to go at a snail's pace. I think I'll be doing W4 twice but at least we're getting out there! I'm 54 and hadn't done much exercise for years if ever so this is great. Good luck
