Planned to do the 28 min run this morning but pushed my self and did 30 πŸ™ŒπŸ½. First time running 30 mins outside πŸ™‚. slower than most people but I’m sure pace will improve with time.

If I can do it anyone can I promise. Looking forward to graduating and consolidating and then push on to get 5K under my belt πŸ˜ƒ

Well done you. Don't worry about your speed - it seems to me that most people here are slower than most people here.πŸ€”πŸ˜‰πŸ€£

Congratulations on running for 30 minutes, however, you shouldn't ".jump the gun" so to speak, you should run the 3/28 minute runs of week 8 before going on to the 3/30 minute runs of week 9.
