Do you want to run or not?

[Tvoakes Graduate in reply to IannodaTruffe]

Positive thoughts, dreading it but so know I CAN do it!! Amazed t how far I’ve come already!!

[musicalpolarbear Graduate]

I start week 5 tomorrow! Good luck, you can do it!

[Tvoakes Graduate in reply to musicalpolarbear]

You too - we CAN do it and we WILL do it! We’ve come so far from non-runners to where we are now!

[IannodaTruffe Mentor in reply to Tvoakes]

That's more like it.

You can do it!!

I just completed run 3 of week 5 ...the 20m run ..I just said to my self ,I can do this , and I did , infact I could have run even longer ..it was hard mind but not as hard as id thought it would be.

Well done for bashing week 4 😃😃😃😃

There is nothing, absolutely nothing, to dread. You've done week 4, so week 5 is definitely achievable. Don't let the gremlins tell you otherwise. If you're struggling slow down, try to lose yourself in your favourite music and just do it. 👍👍👍

I’m in the zone! The head is in the right place and I will achieve my goal! We all will #Positivity

Just think how amazing you will feel when you have completed week 5. After r3 of wk5 i felt on top of the world!!

First post from me and I too am on W5, completed R1 two days ago. I feel the fear of 8 minutes that I'm tackling tonight but reading the posts from you guys is helping me to get my head in the right place

[Tvoakes Graduate in reply to Dechrau]

I bet you felt the dread the first time you saw “3 minutes” and again the first time you saw “5 minutes”. You’ll be fine with 8 minutes -honest! Just don’t clock watch, focus on a point in the distance and look at that until you reach it!

[Dechrau in reply to Tvoakes]

Yes, you're right, thanks so much. I'll do it.

[Tvoakes Graduate in reply to Dechrau]

🏃🏻‍♂️👍 you CAN do it

[Languid_Lil Graduate in reply to Dechrau]

You can definitely do it! Take it slow and believe in yourself! Dechrau *a* gorffen!

I did it!!! How did you get on? Sending good running vibes

[Tvoakes Graduate in reply to Dechrau]

Well done! How did you feel after you completed your run? I felt great after I did it - easier than I thought it was going to be and could of ran a little longer!

[Dechrau in reply to Tvoakes]

Didn't find it easy tbh but just kept pushing on. Not so much out of breath, more to do with heavy legs. Was over the moon though. Well done you too

[Tvoakes Graduate]

omg that’s as close to dying as I want to come A nearly fell over twice but I DID IT .... ran (in a fashion) for a full 20 minutes! Hated every single second of that 20 minutes but was quite chuffed with myself at the end when Jo Whiley says “that’s it, you’ve done it”.

I CAN DO IT - I HAVE DONE IT
