Wow! I just ran for a full 20 minutes and I can’t quite believe I’ve done it. Actually had a smile on my face during the last few mins. If I can do it, anyone can 😁

Great job. That run made me cry it felt so good! Slow and steady into the intervals in week 6 and you got this.

Congratulations smcli2212 on running and completing run 3 of week 5, that is a run that a lot of people are terrified of because of that long 20-minute run, you seemed to have enjoyed it, wow. no reason for anyone to be scared of run 3 of week 5, it is a milestone run with C25K.

Onwards and upwards to runs 1 and 2 of week 6 but be careful of those because they have caught out some runners because of the interval walks and runs after the continuous run of run 3 of week 5, go slow and steady and you will be fine.

It’s a great feeling isn’t it. I did this on Friday and wanted to shout to the world that I had done it. Go us !
