That was no walk in park

[Mrscindyb]

Just completed week 6. Such a struggle all week. Bonus tho I got new running shoes. It doesn’t get easier and I had to dig so deep I was almost in Oz. Last 60 secs Laura encouraged to go bit faster. No way I was barely lifting my feet up but I kept up that running action and stayed til end. My pace is shocking and up and down so next week will concentrate more on a bit of equilibrium. Still can’t believe I am actually posting on a running forum and I am now officially running! Go me and all those out their whether you are struggling or finding it as good as a walk in the park. 🏃🏼‍♀️🏃🏼‍♀️🏃🏼‍♀️

Thank you. Just keep plodding but I’m up and off that couch

I plod too but at least we are out there! I put my MapMyRun on this morning for the 20 mins I ran and I covered a kilometre in 10 mins! I could probably walk it faster! But I’ll speed up later (much, much later!)

We should rename programme couch to plodding in 9 weeks haha. I just think this has made me feel much better and I would normally either still be lying in bed or eating. Win win for the plodders army x

Nothing wrong with plodding! I’m still plodding away at week 8, it’s all about endurance not speed. Keep going 💪🏼

I’ve just completed and struggled with week 4, so dreading what’s coming up next. Do feel massive after glow sense of achievement tho. Well done you and to all struggling with runs at the moment. We can do it! 💪🏃🏻‍♀️

One step at a time. After first week we were running 90 secs a time. Now look how far you have come. Don’t dread it , embrace and believe you can do it because if I can you can. Good luck x
