I'm on wk 5 run 3 and its a 20 minute run anybody any tips how to get through it

First and foremost; believe! If you can't believe in yourself, believe in the programme!

It got us all through and it will get you through too! Don't think "oh no, it's a 20 min run" think "wow! I get to run for 20 mins!" 😁

W5r3 is the best of all the runs and you are going to feel amazing when you smash it, and you will!

I'll add some links to more info too....

Yes.

Two mantras for you:

1. every run you do prepares you for the next one. (i.e. your body is prepared for it)

2. the body is ready but the mind is not (i.e. this is a mental test, not really a physial one.)

So ... go at the right pace, nice and easy and you'll be pleasantly surprised.

Good luck!

I did this on Sunday last week and was the same as you! Think of it as 4 lots of 5 mins. Pace yourself and just give it a go. Felt great after Sunday’s run.

Watch out for Run 1 Week 6 tho as I thought that’d be easy 2 days later and it wasn’t!
