Michael Johnston said I’m a runner 🏃‍♀️🎉Woohoo!! So pleased with myself. Running outside had me inhaling a few doobies, swallowing flies & into really heavy perfume! Just when I thought I couldn’t go on a deer with a big white bottom bounced infront of me & Michael J said that’s 5 minutes to go - you’ve ran for 20 minutes!! 😀 I only ran 4.17km though ......

Well done, I also completed week 6 today! I really had to push, found it difficult but got to the end. I'm completing it on a treadmill, not quite ready to go out in public. I covered 4.18k including the warm up and down walks. I think by the time we get to the 30 min runs in week 9 we should be covering close to 5k, although at this point I'm not concerned with the distance just happy I can run for that long. Never thought I'd get this far. Well done again!

And well done to you too! Yeah I agree once we get to 30 mins of running fingers crossed will hit 5K. 🤞

Congratulations on completing run 3 of week 6, you are now OFFICIALLY a RUNNER, onwards and upwards to week 6 run 1 but be careful about that run as it catches out some people with the interval walks and runs after the non stop 20 minutes of W5R3 which you have just ran

Well done.

if you look at this poll of graduates healthunlocked.com/couchto5....

you will see that only a small proportion hit 5k in 30 minutes during the plan.
