Week 9 fail - an update

Well folks, after all of your encouragement and top tips, I’ve dragged myself round for another go, and I did it! Bar stopping at a crossing on two busy main roads, I did 30 mins!

Reprogramming my brain and imagining you all running alongside me shouting words of encouragement gave me the boost to keep going. And I sort of enjoyed this one.

So thank you for keeping me going. One down, two to go....

Great and well done. Enjoy your next 2 runs. 1 hour of running away from the finish line.

Great job... now that previous attempt was a “practice run” there is no fail. Enjoy closing this plan out.

Never use the fail word here on C25K, just a practice run, perhaps you were running too fast, however, you have now ran for 30 minutes run 1 of week 9, just two more to go and you will have graduated, good luck with them
