4.3 need to slow down for next week

W4 R3 could tell I’d set off too quickly by the time I reached my usual turning spot for the week a minute early! The last 5 minutes was hard work, but managed to complete it.

Got to work on the pace for next week or it’ll finish me off!

Covered 3.9km including the warm up and cool down sections.

Well done on for completing week 4! It is difficult not to start if to fast, but at least you are aware and can slow yourself down in future. Keep up the good work !

Wow, you are fast. I only managed to get to 3.9k in week 9 when running for 30mins. I’m still working on getting to 5k

Great job out there... I don’t think any of us haven’t gone out to fast and had to dig deep to finish a run, but you’re thinking about it much better than I did at this stage... I love the fact the plan for the next run is already forming. Enjoy the wonderful week 5
