I did it I did it I did it!!!!

No not the whole thing- not yet but I completed W5 R3 and ran for a whole 20 minutes!! I know I’m going to complete the whole thing now I’m so happy I could cry!! I felt really sick at the end though Is this normal? I feel fab right now and I’m never going to give up. I am amazed 😊😘have a great day everyone x

Well done👍👍I found that one hard but felt it was a real milestone!!!!! Grinned widely for the whole day after it🤗 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️

Well done! Big milestone passed.

Sick: no, not “normal” (whatever that is). Sounds like you were going to quickly for this heat or weren’t hydrated/fuelled for it.

It’s hard to advise but I sometimes have a banana about half an hour before a longer run. Or I have a bit of my post-run treat of a Lucozade Sport drink before I go and the sugars seem to help. An emergency Haribo or Jelly Baby may also help mid-run.

Well done! 😃👍

Slow and steady is the way to go. No hurry, no pressure, no need to push

If you feel sick maybe you went a bit too fast for yourself. Or it could be the heat.

One run at a time, slow and steady be thy mantra 😁💪🏃‍♀️

Have fun 👍

Please tell me you cried. I cried. Everyone should cry at the end of that one. It's the BIG one. It's the one where you know you can finish the whole thing. It's a truly magical moment. Hope you had a completely brilliant day xx

[WineLover99 in reply to sallenson]

Ah thank u I nearly cried I probably would have had I not felt so sick when I stopped!! I have had a brilliant day I just keep thinking I can’t believe I did that! And you are so right today was the first time I knew I was going to actually do the whole thing, hope you have had a good day too, have u graduated yet? Xxx

[sallenson Graduate in reply to WineLover99]

It’s a biggy. Well done! I’m struggling with the 28 mins outdoors. Treadmill no problem- I felt invincible 😆 You will nail it

[WineLover99 in reply to GG63]

Oh god 28 mins sounds impossible!! Good luck you will do it xx

[M5Buff5]

Great job - that run was the turning point for me. I found W6 R1 & 2 a bit of a struggle but sailed through the 25 minute run this morning. Keep on keeping on!
