I actually ran for 8 minutes straight... TWICE!! I’m so proud of myself ☺️. Got the big 20 minute run on Saturday, very nervous but after reading all these comments and surprising myself every week gives me so much confidence! BRING IT ON! 🏃🏻♀️
Week 5, run 2 complete : I actually ran for... - Couch to 5K

Well done! The 20 minute run isn't as bad as you'd think. You get into a comfortable groove and your coach keeps you informed of how well you're doing. Good luck 😄
Thank you for the comment, I will let you know how I get on ☺️ does it feel like a big step from 8 minutes to 20?

Well done, take r3 very slow and steady and you’ll be fine, trust the programme, you’re ready to do it happy running 🏃♀️

Brilliant! Run 3 is fine: in fact, week 5 was my favourite and was a real turning point for me. You will be fine: enjoy it!
I remember feeling that jump to 20 minutes must be a mistake, but it really will happen. I promise. Take the pace really steady and don't overthink it. Just keep on keeping on and before you know it, you'll be on week 6. Go Kitkat!
Oh my god I did it! I actually ran for 20 minutes! I am on cloud 9 right now ☺️🏃🏻♀️
