Finally got to week 9, it's taken me 11 weeks. No idea how long it will take to do three 30 minute runs in a row, but 11 weeks ago I couldn't get to the end of the road.

Congratulations :-) I did my first run this morning and feel somewhat in awe that I stopped procrastinating and finally did it without stopping. I'm definitely going to continue and posts like yours are what's going to keep me going.

You keep going 👏. You'll be amazed and so proud of yourself in nine week's time - or ten, or eleven. Who's counting anyway 😉.

It does feel like a miracle. I feel like this after completing week 5!

Just keep doing what you're doing, one run at a time, one foot in front of the other, nice and steady. You can do it! 👍🏻😁

Congrats Speedy60! Maybe 30 mins isn't that much harder than 25 mins? It doesn't sound much longer? Anyway, let us know how u find it. Good luck!
