Week 5 is just another week of workouts, all of which are shorter than Week 4 sessions.

You have done brilliantly to get to this point but you might need an extra rest day between runs if you are still feeling it.

If you have any doubts read this healthunlocked.com/couchto5...

You can do this.

You can! 5 weeks ago I was thinking about giving up on week 1 because the 60 second jog was a chore and I have just completed r3 of w5. Just try not to think about it. It’s only 4 minutes longer than the last run and you’ve run for 4 minutes loads of times.

Don’t worry if you feel you need another day to give your legs a rest. The C25K is designed to build up your stamina and you won’t lose that overnight. Do some stretching and maybe go for a gentle walk instead...whatever you decide you’ve got this💪
