Week 9 I'M COMING TO GET YOU🙀

[Dougalucy]

Just finished week 8 this morning, thought I was going really slow but checked my Strava when finished and not only did I have a faster pace but went further than ever. 4.9k ( that includes the 2x5 min walks).

I'm hoping to reach the 5K in week 9.

Week 9 is yours for the taking, no challenge! Two tiny extra minutes. You’ve got this, and we’re here to cheer you on!

Woohoo, nearly there! 🙌🙌🙌 😀

Well done Dougalucy! .....you’re well on your way to completing 5k next week! I’m hoping to complete week 8 tomorrow. 🏃🏽‍♀️🏃🏽‍♀️🏃🏽‍♀️

Well done! Just did W9R1 today and didn’t notice the difference really other than half way is a bit, but not much further on but the good thing is it does just get you over the 5k mark....so now thinking post grad can target a ‘Park Run’ or a 10k 😬??!! . Weird....never thought I’d actually like running. How u finding it all?

I can't believe I'm on Week 9, on Week 1 I said " I will never be able to do this", on Week 3 I think I repeated it 3 or 4 times, but on Week 5 something happened (not sure what) but ever since I just think "I've got this"

Snap! Felt exactly the same as I’m sure do most others. One of the step- ups....wk 3 to 4 or is it 4 to 5 was a huge increase and I thought, wtf! But you do it....a combination of will power and Michael Johnson in my ear....can’t let that ledg’ down! It’s a really good app and clearly successful at converting not particularly healthy people into reasonably healthy ones: being able to say ‘I run 5k 3 or 4 times a week’ makes you sound and must mean we’re healthy...right?
