Week 6! Why are you so hard?!

I was feeling great having done the 20 min run and I'd seen week 6 was meant to be tricky but I didn't want to believe it.....but run 1 was so hard! Why is 18 mins of running in small sections as hard as 20 all together?! Not looking forward to run 2 now 😢

I found the first run of week 6 the hardest of all and I was expecting, after the 20 minute run, for it to be straightforward. I bet run 2 of this week will be easier

I did w6r1 on Saturday and found it ok. I think knowing you 'only' have to run for 6 minutes it's tempting to go a bit quicker which makes it harder. I'm doing run 2 later so I'll let you know! :)

Not what you're looking for?
