Week 1 complete! ✅

8 Replies

So I’ve managed to complete all 3 runs of week 1 first time round and I’m feeling proud. I definitely found this one the toughest though but maybe that’s because I’m not very well. On to week 2 now 😊

Congratulations Kaf 95 on completing week 1, but if you are not feeling well hold back for a few days then you can do week 2 when you're feeling better.

My 3rd run on week 1 was AWFUL and I was seriously considering redoing the week but I did w2r1 today and it was AMAZING!!

This makes me feel so much better, I felt terrible the whole way through and really struggled. It felt like I was back to where I started, not what I expected at all!

Week 1 is definitely hard. Well done for sticking with it.

You are not just training your muscles, you are also training your heart, and lungs, and most important your will-power. You can expect it to get gradually better, not easier, but better.

I wish I had started when I was as young as you Kaf_95.

Good luck with the rest of the programme.👣👣👣👣👣👣👣👣👣👣

Great job. Hopefully you’re feeling 100% next run day... don’t be afraid to take an extra rest day. Enjoy week 2
