Welcome to the forum and well done on your progress.

This guide to the plan is essential reading healthunlocked.com/couchto5...

W5 is not a huge jump and yours is a common misconception. This post breaks down the week and should allay your fears healthunlocked.com/couchto5...

Relax and enjoy your journey.

My advice is to tell yourself you can do it then run really really slowly, focus on your surroundings and whatever you’re listening to and you’ll be fine. Good luck!
