Didn’t think I could do this, 20 minutes running, so surprised I smashed it, feel like I can actually do this

You CAN do it Coolcat2, congratulations on completing run 3 of week 5, that is a milestone run with C25K, onwards and upwards to week 6 run 1 but be careful about that run as it catches out some people with the interval walks and runs after the non stop 20 minutes of W5R3 which you have just ran 🏃 😊 👍

Awesome, that was the one I was really worried about! As AlMorr says, be aware of W6R1, it caught me out, but just take it steady and you'll get there.

20 minutes non stop is an amazing achievement. To think this all started with 60 seconds 😊😊
