OMG! I've run for 25 mins without stopping for 4 times in 8 days! Amazing really as I haven't exercised regularly in over 10 years.

Enjoyed run tonight, again picked up pace and felt great afterwards.

Thanks again for your advice and encouragement

Roll on week 8πŸ‘ŒπŸ‘ŒπŸƒβ€β™‚οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™‚οΈ

Great run for you again, that's 4/25 minute runs you have ran, each time a little faster, onwards and upwards to week 8 which are 3/28 minute runs, not long now until you graduate. 😊 πŸƒπŸΎ

Cheers Al, I hope you are well, yeah was able to pick up pace again. I have no fear going up to 28 min runs, but the jump from 3-5 mins terrified me! Roll on week 8 πŸ‘πŸ€πŸƒ

Fantastic!! Well done you!! I think I’m doing to do my R3 this evening when the weather should be dryer! I haven’t brought myself to running in the rain yet 🀣 do you run before having an evening meal? I also found my calf muscles were aching more after R2 - did you find the same at all?

CockneymickGraduate in reply to PippyBear

Thank you! I usually run before an evening meal. Yes my calfs ached a bit, natural reaction to longer run, I didn't ache yesterday however. You'll smash it this eveningπŸƒπŸ‘πŸƒ
