Week 5 Run 2 Complete

Just finished week 5 run 2 (8m run, 5m walk 8m run). Really struggled last 2 minutes of the second run but so pleased I’ve done it.

I’ve had a look at run 3 and was really surprised to see a 20 minute straight run. This feels like a huge step up and by far the biggest so far.

Did anyone find the transition between run 2 and 3 of week 5 to be a struggle?

It is a huge step up, run 3 of week 5, twenty minutes of non stop running, but the program has prepared you for that run, just take it slowly, once you have completed it you will be very proud of yourself, it is THE (thee) run of C25K, once you have completed it, from now on you can be assured that you will graduate in around 4 weeks. 😊 🏃🏾
