I found runs 1 &2 to be fine but R3 knocked me out! I don’t know if it was because it was so hot, or if it was because I tried a new route, or if I was just over-confident but the first time I tried R3 I had to stop after 18 mins to get my breath then after a minute walking I could only run for another couple of minutes...it was very hot and sunny so I believe I exhausted too easily. So I re-ran R3 today and am pleased to say I managed it all. I went out early before it got hot and I ran my normal route. The completed run has given me my confidence back so I will be starting week 9 Tuesday and should graduate Saturday if all goes to plan OMG!! I can’t believe that I struggled to run for one minute just 2 months ago! It’s crazy but the best kind of crazy 😜
Week 8 finished. R3 a struggle, had to repeat it - Couch to 5K
