Week 3 Run 3

Wow wow wow! Having struggled so much the last couple of weeks with cold and then a twisted ankle I decided to repeat the final run of week 3 to help myself feel fully prepared ready to tackle the w4r1 in a couple of days! Wow I’m so happy with that run today, I finally felt progress. Repeating that run showed me how far I’ve come, I didn’t struggle with my breathing and I was running and not even worrying about how much longer was left! It didn’t feel to hard or anything! Just the motivation I needed 💪👌😁 feels so good to notice my progress!

No harm on repeating any runs Philippaaa, if you are not satisfied with any run you can repeat it, now, onward and upwards as they say to week 4 run 1

We’ll done! You are definitely ready for week 4. We are at the same point. I finished Week 3 Run 3 this morning.

W3R3 is the only one I repeated and it boosted me on, never looked back.

It's a forward journey from now on, YOU CAN DO IT 💫

Good for you! The programme does work. Just take it steady. The duration is the key, not distance or speed. Keep plodding on!
