Congratulations to you Aruba2020 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 🏃🏾 😊

Thank you, super happy with my process. What does week 6 run 1 entail please?

It's a mix of walking and running, 2/8 minute runs, 2/3 minute walks, just check with that, I think there is a slight difference between runs 1 and 2 of week 6, run 3 of week 6 is the first of 4/25 minute runs, once you complete run 3 of week 6 you are officially a runner 🏃🏾.

20 minutes non stop is brilliant. You should be so pleased. 😊

Thank you. I was flagging after 10 minutes but I was determined to finish it.
