Hey, well done! I've done W7R2 this evening and just like you, I still can't believe I am running for 25 mins! Amazing how far along this journey we are. My only niggle is that my distance is just under 4K for the entire run (including walks) and I thought by now it might be a little higher. Anyway, I'm not going to worry too much about it because there are another 7 runs to go until graduation and i'm sure small improvements will come along the way.

When do you plan on getting out for your next run?

Well done to you too! Planned for Thursday but legs are feeling very tight and abit painful tonight so will see how it goes. I wouldn’t worry about your distance just yet just enjoy being able to run continuously for a considerable amount of time. Good luck!

Hi R178, I know what you mean, I just did my first 25 mins today and can’t quite believe it, so well done to you😊 To think not long ago 60 seconds was a struggle but now we ran 25 minutes🏃‍♀️🐢

Amazing isn’t it we’ve come so far! Are you enjoying the running?

erm if I am honest I still prefer the feeling of accomplishment t the end of a run rather than enjoying the run. I still find it hard but am doing it ok so hoping “enjoyment” comes in time😊

really glad to be doing it though positive step to becoming bit fitter and generally healthier👍
