I can’t believe I am doing this

Tonight I have completed week 5 run 3. I can’t believe I am here and it was not hard to complete because my stamina has improved so much. I can only urge anyone who struggles who have no injuries to just keep going. It is really worth it.

Awesome, great job. I'm on that run tomorrow. How did it feel? Was it more mental than physical? Well done though.

I did run 2 week 5 this evening. It feels great and am looking forward to the challenge of the next run.

Congratulations on completing week 5. 😀👍

I hope I will be following right on your heels

Really well done! It is a terrific achievement isn't it?! I know I really, really struggled with the first two weeks and absolutely could not believe would get here. Heading out on my W6R2 now.

Thank you “old man” - just completed w5/2 and was worrying about run 3 and the 20 minutes. I feel more confident now. Thanks again!!

Fantastic! Well done. I did this run last Saturday and then on Sunday a niggle in my left ankle meant Ive had to take an extended rest... I'm desperate to get back out in case I end up undoing all my hard work to date. Delighted for you though, you're sounding strong mentally and physically!
