W4R1

[Keefington]

I was dreading this one after my W3 R3 and I looked at what was to come ... so pleased I pushed through and now think maybe I can do this.

I’m really enjoying the time it gives me to think and decompress

Welcome to the forum and well done on getting started.

This guide to the plan is essential reading healthunlocked.com/couchto5... and I recommend you follow the link to the post about mental approach.

Don't dread any run.........what is the worst that can happen.

Relax and enjoy the journey.

Thanks I found this really useful and checked the guide out last week when I started browsing and “lurking” on here. I also thought by posting I could hold myself to account and make sure I continue with the program

Well done! That’s very encouraging. I’m doing W4R1 today and a bit worried about it.

Good luck 😊

I felt the same this morning when I started but just kept the pace low and pushed through. It was definitely an achievement to do it

I managed it too. Had to slow down a bit and found it tough towards the end of the five minute runs, but felt so good after I had recovered.
