Week 4

Third attempt at week four of couch to 5k and WOOHOO!

I'll complete it twice more before moving to week five.

"The pain will pass" mantra worked, but it's only true without time constraints

Well done you ⭐️ Don’t worry about repeats: they build up your stamina and that really pays off later.

Thank you for the encouragement, this site is a real help. The pain in my calves didn't seem quite as bad as the first two runs. I now feel confident that I can progress.

Have you tried the NHS Strength and Flex podcasts ? Great calf stretches !
