So just started W3 and surprised myself with the move up from 90 second runs to 3 minutes. Still had the eyes closed grimace on the final run stage of the 1st day of the new week. But, kept going!

Welcome to the forum and well done on your progress

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

and includes advice on minimising impact, stretching after every run, hydration and strengthening exercises, all of which will help.

A smile, head up and looking where you are going is advised for all runners.

Enjoy your journey.
