With much anticipation I trudged my way to the gym at 9.30 ( on a Sunday morning 🙈), worried the 5 minutes runs would finish me off, but no I completed the run without having to slow down or even worse stop!! This programme really works 😀

I've just got in from doing my Week 4 Run 1 and was going to post. Yey! We smashed it! I don't know how it works but it does.

Well done, it’s amazing pushes you just enough to never feel totally comfortable but manageable

Yes! And just when you start to flag that little voice in your ear says,"Just 60 seconds left; you can do it" and you trust it!

I did the same run yesterday and had the same worries, I was amazed how ready I was for it. It really does work!
