Week 5/Run 3

Hi all,

I did it... I didn’t stop but after 10 mins I slowed down for around 30/60 seconds to just have a very slight rest...

I’m still slightly shocked that I’ve done it almost like in my head I think no you didn’t manage to run for 20 mins but I did and I’m so proud of myself.

😊

Well done!

Interesting that you slowed down for 30-60 seconds after 10 mins...

I would say that whatever speed you slowed down to, should be your pace for the rest of the program. It could be that you're going too fast.
