This program is seriously working. I ran both 8's and literally patted myself on the back after each 8.

Its going to be hard lugging the gatorade to throw on myself after Fridays run!! Woohoo I did it!!

And you are right for giving yourself a pat on the back, each run you do is making you a stronger and fitter runner, even if you don't feel like it does.

Trust the program and believe in yourself, control your breathing and relax as you run, you'll be fine.

I did w5r3 yesterday and gave myself another pat on the back.

My calf is still tight but luckily I have a few days off to get it ready for week 6.
