W5R2 Success!!

I did it! And it even felt really efficient and enjoyable until almost the very end when I got a little fatigued. I’m feeling optimistic about R3 (20 min)- I never thought I’d say that!!!

It's a nice change, someone, using the word optimistic to describe run 3 or week 5, that is thinking positive, your day 3 run of week 5 will be fine. Many people on C25K describe their feelings about that run as 'terrified' scared, nervous and are asking for help because it's such a big step from the 8 minutes to 20 minutes in just 48 hours, I am so glad that you are looking forward to that run, enjoy.

Well done. The next run is the next run and it’s there because you are ready for it. Enjoy it!

Thanks, I think I need to work a bit on hydration today and tomorrow (have got a bit of a headache today) but otherwise nothing should stand in my way 💪🏃‍♀️💪
