OMG I ran for 20 minutes! I am still in shock but am totally buzzing. I may even have cried a little when I finished it. I struggled around the 10 minute mark so slowed my pace right down but I was also at a slight incline in the park so as soon as I got over that I managed to push through. When I heard Michael say I only had 2 minutes left I found an extra burst of energy to get me to the end. The last 5 minutes it started to rain heavily too but it was very cooling on my purple cheeks so I didn't mind it too much. My glasses were steaming up and covered in rain so I must have looked ridiculous but I don't actually care. I bloody well did it!!

Congratulations on completing run 3 of week 5, that is a milestone run with C25K, onwards and upwards to week 6 run 1 but be careful about that run as it catches out some people with the interval walks and runs after the non stop 20 minutes of W5R3 which you have just ran 🏃🏾 😊
