Gosh, I found this hard today. I've seen a few posts saying that this run catches you out and I did that to me. I managed to complete it, but for some reason found the 20 minute run a bit easier... strange isnt it.

Great job. The 20 minute run WAS easier! The brisk walk breaks are cardio too, today was 24 minutes of cardio!

Enjoy run 2, it’s similar to this one... slow and steady as you go.

Congratulations on completing your longest workout to date.

WD Flabby. I took heed all of the tales about W6R1 and just sauntered along slowly. The last half of the middle 8 minutes was a bit tough but because of the cool rain pouring on my head, I didn't feel as knackered as I usually do. I'm going to do a rain dance before each run now.

It is hard. I found W6R3 much easier than W6R1. You’ll be grand; just keep going slowly, slowly. 😊
