I can’t believe I did it...everyone on this forum said you can... and I did! Wow!!!

Ok, I β€˜cheated’ a little bit by choosing the flattest route I know (there’s not many in the Peak District where I live) but I don’t care! I did it- and so can you. Have faith πŸ˜ƒ

Well done. You are well on your way now. Big huge tick against that one ..

Don't blame you for finding the flatest route ...

Know you are saving the hills for later πŸ˜‚

Well done, such a great sense of achievement after that run and I chose a flat route when I did mine. Be prepared - lots of people, including myself, have found Week 6 tricky but you can do it!!

And there was me looking at w6 and thinking it would be easy... maybe I β€˜d better not underestimate it....

I’d have never, ever, ever thought I’d run for 20 minutes-especially as I had a mild panic attack about running 3! πŸ˜‚

I live by the coast so ALL my runs are flat. Other people do the whole thing on a treadmill. It all counts, none of it is cheating. Well done.

Oh I envy your flat runs- I have to run up a hill just to get to my flat lake circuit!
