I did it!!! I am so happy! Four weeks ago I didn’t believe this was possible, heck even this morning I had my doubts, but I actually ran for 5 minutes! And then I did it again! This plan really works 😮 😁

It's a blooming miracle! You'll continue to be staggered at what you can do. My advice as you move on is (I'm a recent graduate and still consolidating my runs), slow down if you need to - duration is the key not speed.

Well done! I'm just about to go out for a 30 min run - I'm still amazed that I can write that!!! Keep at it - it *really* works!

So glad I’ve read this just looked at week 4 to start tomorrow and I’m a bit panicked!

No need to panic, if you’ve kept to the plan so far you can definitely do it 😀 Good luck tomorrow!
