20 minutes...nailed.

[Doddery123]

Just nailed the 20 minutes week 5 run 3 this morning. Well I did it. Took faith from the programme and comments on here. (surely they know what they are doing by now. And turns out they do! ) I jogged slow 🐌🐌🐌 (i read the slow jogging book) and it was absolutely fine. No shin splints pain. Slightly different muscles to the ones I was using pre slow jog book. At the end I was thinking I could have gone a bit faster. But maybe then I would not have completed.

Well done! I’ve got that run coming up and this forum is helping so much in giving me the faith to know I will complete it 🏃🏽‍♀️

[Strangethings Graduate in reply to Hidden]

I was not sure I could do it even as I started 😊

[LUHAN Graduate]

Well done!

[ButtercupKid Graduate]

Well done you 🏅 ! Plenty of time to work on going faster: slow and steady is the way just now x

[Oldfloss Administrator Graduate]

Perfect! Having something left in the shell ( tank) is a great thing... Very, very well done!!!

I know , each time I think I can’t do it , I just slow down 😊

[Buddy34 Graduate]

20 minutes non stop that's brilliant. Well done you 😊😊

Congratulations on running that 20-minute run, just be careful regarding runs 1 and 2 of week 6, they have interval walks and runs and have caught a few people out because of that, if you run those two slowly you will be OK, run 3 of week 6 is back to a 25-minute non-stop run.

[Strangethings Graduate in reply to AlMorr]

Thank you , will watch out for it

[AliHC Graduate]

Well done! That's a huge milestone you've achieved there!

Keep up the good work!

Keep it nice and steady (slow) on your next run, it catches quite a few people out!
