Just done wk3 run1 what a killer that was & a big step up from wk2.

Just about managed it & not looking forward to Thursdays run now.

Positive thoughts though.

Xxx. Xxx. Xxx

Done wk3 run2 actually enjoyed it.

I made my jogs slower like the posts says & found it made a massive difference to the jog..

Have run 3 this eve so let's see how I get on later

I've just done the same run tonight. The first full 3 min run was hard going. It'll be interesting to see how we feel at the end of the week!

Good luck and keep it up

Snap! Honestly after my first run for week three I thought that this was over and it was too difficult.

Now I’ve had a days rest and time to recover I feel more positive. I’ve got my second run for week three tomorrow and I’m feeling more positive

Keep it up and we can get through week three together
