Woah that was hard but I did it 😊

It was definitely a case of mind over matter and I thought my legs were going to buckle when I switched to walking at the end but I’m so proud of how far I’ve come.

Eagerly checked my stats when I got home to find my average speed was... slower than last week! OMG does this mean I actually run slower than I walk?! 🐌🐌🐌🐌🐌

Well done on getting through your milestone run!! 🥉👍💪😁

Do not worry about speed at all at this stage. You got through the run and what a run! 20 mins straight! Congratulations 👍😉

Thank you 😊

Great running.

In theory every time you run longer you run slower... and in practice it’s a good idea. Don’t worry about it though... all that matters here is that you are running... pace is for later, if you want it, this plan gives you the tools to do that, but more importantly a healthier, fitter you.

Enjoy week 6.

Thank you! You’re right of course, I’ll keep trusting the plan - it’s worked miracles so far 😀

[Stratters Graduate]

Brilliant! What a great feeling eh? I have exactly the same issue with speed/distance ...... don’t worry about it and don’t mention it when you’re bragging - just say you’ve now progressed to running for a solid 20 minutes!

Thank you, yes brilliant, bit sore but brilliant, and you’re totally right, who needs to know 😏

[Islerunner]

That’s brilliant! Well done. I think we’re all scared of W5r3, but you did it! That’s amazing 😉

[Spikys_mum Graduate]

Thank you 😊 That’ll be you soon! Have no fear, if I can do it anyone can!
