Not much to say about run one. I've been really looking forward to week five. Felt quite hard the first few minutes, realised I was running quite tense so made an effort to relax which worked. I seem to have formed a habit of starting at the slowest possible pace known to man instead of my most comfortable pace.... Then realising I can definitely go quicker without becoming a complete mess. Sometimes takes me too long to realise that I'm going too slow for my fitness level which means I don't feel I'm getting the best out of the run. I think it's from fear of going too quickly and not finishing, but it's definitely more comfortable to speed up a bit.
Week 5. Fitter than I think. : Not much to say... - Couch to 5K
Week 5. Fitter than I think.

I’m exactly the same. Scared of going too fast and crumbling later on!
