Well I went and did it struggled with stopping to walk for 3 mins between runs after the last run been 20 mins non stop. My breathing was fine but my calves were aching in parts however I did challenge myself by running up some hills maybe this was why? Any tips on how to prevent this? Would be very much appreciated.
