Pleased this seems to be getting easier. I thought I was slow, but was actually faster. I arrived home and still had 5 mins walk to do. Will have to plan longer route. Must NOT give up. So close now. This is the point I've reached twice before. I need to finish this time.

Well done, this time you WILL complete C25K, onwards and upwards to week 8, not too long now until you graduate 😁 πŸƒπŸΎ

Well done. Don’t worry about being slow, it’s the continuous running that matters and your speed will almost certainly increase once you’ve completed week 9 and keep running regularly. Sounds like you’re doing great. Enjoy week 8!

I fell into the trap of running week 7 onwards too quickly without realising it. Take it easy and get through these last three weeks with a smile on your face 😊

And finish you will, great effort. Amazing how quickly you need new longer routes. Doing laps / circuits of car parks features in my runs too often🀣

Thanks all. Hoping I haven't gone to fast. All 3 runs have been with an average pace of 7:21 which seems quite. Quick. That just seems to work for ma as a pace. My last 2 k were quicker than the first. That was a surprise. πŸ˜…

Congratulations πŸ‘.

It's not uncommon to surprise yourself some weeks in. You continue to put in the same effort as the early weeks but you're that much fitter.

You will finish this πŸ‘

We’re doing W7R3 tomorrow so at about the same place as you. I’ve worked out that we might even graduate before Christmas Day. And what a great present that would be. That’s what’s keeping us going!
