Week 4 Run 1 ✅

I honestly can’t believe I’ve just managed to complete my first week 4 run. The last 5 minutes was the nearly the end of me I think.

That was so so hard but I’m over the moon that I somehow managed it.

How did everyone else find week 4?

I just did the same run yesterday. The second 5 mins was a toughie. It seemed to me there is quite a big jump between 9m running in w3 and 16m running in w4. But it did make me laugh that the 3m runs of last week that were hard then just seemed easy now. Im gonna buckle down for r2 tomorrow and I think r3 will be a breeze. He hopes.

I thought exactly the same, it was a massive jump! I often laugh to myself that I found a minute hard in week 1 and now look at us haha! Good luck tomorrow, I’ll be tackling the second run on Monday!

I’ll follow you to keep up on your progress as we are at a similar point :)

Yes! I think about the 1-minutes too! I dont think Ive ever used the phrase "buckle down" before, but its definitely what I need to do on the next run!

You're doing so well Dani! I'm so jealous right now Haha

I've had to stop cuz I badly sprained my ankle and still got 1-2 weeks resting it.

Hopefully start again really soon but you keep it up! You're awesome xx
