I know this particular run has been flogged to death but it really is a milestone! I have been building up to this run for several weeks now with such anxiety - however after telling myself I could stop after 10 mins, I just kept going. I did smile when the lovely Jo Wiley told me I could run slower if I was feeling exhausted - not sure anyone could jog more slowly than me! The weird thing was I was on such a high I could have kept going. I feel fabulous! I do feel perhaps now I can go to the end. What an amazing program this is.

As you say, run 3 of week 5 is a milestone run, congratulations on completing it and yes, you feel fabulous.
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.

Well done!
I never thought or worried about any runs much, it just makes it worse, so try not to overthink the coming runs, just go out and nail them.. Slowly of course!
