W9R3 completed on 21st September (30 mins but no idea what distance as didn’t track), and one week later (last Sunday) I braved entering a 5K charity fun run and did it in 42 mins. Unbelievable given W1R1 nearly killed me 😂. Happy sweaty girl crossing finishing line...
shocked myself!: W9R3 completed on 21st... - Couch to 5K
shocked myself!

Congratulations! It’s so reassuring to hear that people struggled on the first run and still made it. Hope that will be me some day!
