The dreaded week 5 run 3

[Foodbaby]

Have just completed this run after work after telling everyone all day how much I couldn't do it. Well I did. Followed the advice of the guys on here to slow it down and before I knew it, Jo Whiley was telling me times up. I'm so buzzed I could cry 🤪

Congratulations Foodbaby on completing run 3 of week 5, it is no longer and never was dreaded. Run 3 of week 5 is a milestone run with C25K.

Onwards and upwards to week 6 run 1 but be careful about that run as it catches out some people with the interval walks 🚶 and runs 🏃,I bet you will be buzzing for the rest of the day 😊.

Hi this is my next run- week 6 run1 - I keep reading it catches people out but in what way?

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate in reply to Craig-14]

After the long 20 minute run of week 5, run 1 and 2 of week 6 are back to a few interval walks as well as runs, as long as you don't go too fast you will find those two runs to be OK.

Ahh ok many thanks- I did think it may be to do with speed!

[Foodbaby Graduate in reply to Blueberrydog]

Bring it on 🏃

[IannodaTruffe Mentor]

Well done.........but why spread the unjustified "dreaded" myth?

It is just another run............but a bit special.

[Buddy34 Graduate]

Great work you did it even after having doubted yourself 😊😊

Well done great job

Well done! I did cry when I completed this run! It was more of attending point for me than graduation, to be honest. Enjoy week 6 👍
