Amazed myself by completing this after the horrendous week 2 that I had. Pace was really slow and Iโ€™m sure walkers could overtake ha ha but I did it comfortably and actually enjoyed it .. soo proud of myself as 6 weeks ago I struggled to run for a minute ๐Ÿ˜„

Yay well done! I did the same run last night and was on cloud 9 when Iโ€™d finished! Week 6 run 1 was horrendous for me I couldnโ€™t see how Iโ€™d made any improvement after that but I was wrong! What a difference from 6 weeks ago though. Itโ€™s a lovely feeling to feel so proud of yourself isnโ€™t it? I hope thatโ€™s whatโ€™ll keep us going to week 9 and beyond!

Yeah I really struggled with the last run.. the last 10 mins were awful so was dreading this run. Went nice and slow And found it so comfortable I was surprised when she kept announcing half time and 5 mins to go! Wooo well done to you too.. officially runners ๐Ÿ™Œ

That is so great to hear liz163! Especially because I have my W6R3 tomorrow morning!

I just now saw your first post and nearly screamed at my iPad โ€œWELL? Did you do it??!!โ€ when I realized youโ€™d posted 3 days ago. So off I went to search for your next post and I found this one. So happy for you! And relieved, you make me feel like I can do it too. We will see. About 10 hours from now.

Itโ€™s so lovely to hear that youโ€™re a RUNNER!! I remember struggling with the W6 intervals but when I did that 25 I was buzzing!! Slow is our friend! Good luck with your last few runs, I hope you feel that completion is within grasp, itโ€™s how I felt after W6R3. You can do this- enjoy!

Iโ€™m going out for my first consolidation run this morning - a bit scary but also liberating!

Hi liz an interval runner did walk past me on that run before bursting into a sprint, I think quite a lot of us are vying for the slowest runner awards but I've been tracking my runs (not being controlled by ) using strava and Samsung health and there is a small but noticeable increase in pace, I'll never be a super hare but being able to run for 25 minutes like you I'd never have believed it

Well done you
