W5R3 I’m still alive! 😂😊

I’ve done it! On the treadmill, so not convinced it’s as hard as the outside world though?

Started with a sore calf, so a little worried, but.....I planned my playlist last night to match my minutes...thanks to a 6 month free trial of Apple Music (👍🏻). Started with Aerosmith, Walk this way, finished with Tina Turner ‘Simply the Best’. The running tunes were my faves-definitely a Pavlov’s dogs moment...training my brain to know running means great tunes!

Here’s to week 6....Have a great weekend & run everyone 👍🏻🍺🏃‍♀️🏃🏻‍♂️

Well done, it is a milestone.

Outdoors is just different and you might find it takes a few runs to adjust, but the effort is worthwhile. I have great respect for those who complete C25K on a treadmill, simply because I know my boredom threshold is far too low to let me do it.

W6R1 is tricky, so stay nice and slow.

Not what you're looking for?
