W2rmR2

Just done two 8min runs which was great. I looked ahead to next run, and it's one 20 min run. Is the ap broken? Did I look wrong? Or is this the leap?

Hey it looks like you've skipped to Week 5 ? Week 2

For your 3 runs in week 2, you will begin with a brisk 5-minute walk, then alternate 1-and-a-half minutes of running with 2 minutes of walking, for a total of 20 minutes. Check out the link below for an idea of what to expect :). Hope this helps.

Sorry I am week 5 run 2, next one 20mins???

Run 3 of week 5 is the 20 minute run that scares some people, do not fear it, take that run slow and steady, once you have completed it you will be very proud of yourself, good luck.

And then it goes back to the short runs?? What music can I use is my next wonder...

After you have ran run 3 of week 5 be careful about runs 1 and 2 of week 6, they have caught out some people with the interval walks and runs after the non stop 20 minutes of W5R3, its up to you on what music you want to listen to, try Spotify.

It ain't broke, it don't need fixing and it works like a dream..........there is no great leap, as this post explains healthunlocked.com/couchto5...

You can do this.

I just about pooped myself when I read that one

but IannodaTruffe is right, you can do it, you just have to believe in yourself - keep it slow and steady and trust in the plan
