Week 6 Completed!!

Have to say that I’ve surprised myself both in sticking to the program and now being able to run for a full 25 minutes. I’m actually looking forward to extending that over the next few weeks to a full 30 minutes. As an overweight 52 year old who hasn’t done any serious running in over 30 years it’s been quite a journey so far!!

Yay...well done ianjdav ...that’s a good frame of mind you have there too...looking forward to adding on extra minutes rather than dreading them! Not long left now...and I’m sure you’ll finish in style! 💪🏻😉

Thanks! For me it was just a case of keeping a steady pace & not going out too fast. Don’t doubt your ability & believe in yourself, honestly if you’ve got this far you can do it. Go for it!!
