You have no idea how ecstatic and emotional I feel at this moment.

I feel like an idiot that I’m emotional 😭

I did the whole bloody programme. Ran 2 x 3 mins and 2 x 5 mins. Have been dreading this all day as didn’t think for 1 minute I’d manage a 5 minute run, let alone 2. ☺️☺️☺️

Way to go Polly... isn’t it surprising how soon and quickly the fitness builds up? I was shocked back in week 4 too. Don’t doubt yourself now, you can trust the plan... and let that emotion out, you just had a great run.

That’s fabulous Polly! It’s amazing how our achievements make us emotional. You won’t know what to do with yourself after W5R3 in a few runs time, just you wait! 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️👍👍❤️❤️😭😭

Keep the faith..... believe in yourself and you will do this. Yes it will be hard going at times but what a feeling you get when you amaze yourself. Good luck and keep doing what you are doing.
