Nearly there!

Late to this forum but am on week 8. Can’t believe I can actually run now! Anyone new I’d say don’t give up. It really does work. I’ve tried other c25k apps before always got stuck on about 7 mins run.

Well done for getting so far I can’t wait to be in your position and able to run for so long. I’m on week 2 r3 so I still got a fair bit to go haha but I’ll get there soon

Thanks for your post, it's really encouraging. I've got my w5r2 this evening which I think i'll be OK on, but am seriously doubting my third run this week as it really does go up a gear.

I know what you mean. I was really doubtful I could go past 10 mins but I did it and I’m sure you will. I try and put myself in a non thinking zone and I just focus on my breathing and feet!

Good luck!

The high that you get after completing W5R3 is so worth all the pain though! Enjoy.
