Progress - slowly but surely!

Hi Everyone, just wanted to post an update on my progress; I’ve completed W3R3 today and was able to complete it much more easily than the start of the week. Seems this stamina thing does actually work! I never would’ve thought I would be able to do this 3 weeks ago when I started, after puffing and panting my way through my 1st and 2nd run in W1 but here I am! I know it’s only early days but feeling positive and have my target in mind! Hope everyone else is well and injury-free on this amazing journey 😀

Indeed, here you are! It’s a very addictive journey and one you will relish every step of the way. Take each run at a time, don’t look ahead and share your progress on this forum. Keep going x

Keep going and you'll be looking back having run 30 minutes : )

Have faith in yourself, the programme and this great forum (can I just say again how happy I am to have found it at the end of week 7, lol) and you'll be graduating in no time

hi Littlegem2107, well done for keeping up with the programme. Like you say its an amazing journey we are all on , starting with a struggle to run 60seconds then building up to running 30 minutes.. At first you think you will never do it but week by week you run a bit more, your recovery time gets better till hey you graduate😊 keep it up we can do this👍🏃‍♀️🐢
