Week 5 - Complete!

During the runs of week 5, they felt like the most difficult. Upon finishing Run 3, it felt like I'd already done the hard work in the previous weeks. I still can't get over that I have just run 20 minutes without stopping! Buzzing!

Well done......it is a milestone.

Stay nice and slow for the next one though.......it catches many out.

Understood! It looks easier but I can see how it would catch people out thinking they can go faster.

Also just finished week 5. Run 3 took me two attempts (the lactic acid kicked in hard on the first attempt after about 12 minutes) felt fantastic though and actually felt like I could have done another 5 or 10 minutes so very happy 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
