Wow what a difference an extra 30sec makes. Felt like I was running for half hour by the end. Long way to go yet!

Sense of achievement at the end 💪🏻

Great job. Maybe you were having a premonition there, half an hour will come soon! First step up done... yes they can be tough, but when you beat them you know you were tougher. Enjoy run 2

I just did w2r2 and went further and faster than r2, not by much but actually looking forward to re to see if I improve again.

You really look forward to the end of each run then, just so you can walk a bit and catch your breath. Can I manage just a few more seconds? Will anyone notice if I walk a few seconds early? I certainly felt like that. I’m just about to start Week5. week5! In week one I felt just like you. The program works!

There is a very good contributor called Ianadda Truffe. Flick through the posts and read the link that he suggests. It is very helpful to a new runner. That’s you by the way! A runner! Keep up the good work.

As an update R2 done! I’m definitely building on from my last run but at the same time I pushed through pain barriers with me knee.

I am slowly becoming a runner. Never thought that would be me 😁
