Wk 3 Complete!

Feeling very happy to have finished wk 3.... even added an extra little run onto the end.

I am up and out by 5.50am usually.... such a beautiful time of the day at this time of year.

Still have to work a little on my negative internal voice that tells me this is too difficult.... I'm hoping that voice will get quieter with each run.

Anyway, it's been a successful week. A couple of days rest now, before I attack wk 4!

Welcome to the forum and well done

on your progress.

This guide to the plan is essential reading healthunlocked.com/couchto5...

and includes advice on minimising impact, stretching after every run, hydration and strengthening exercises, all of which will help.

Stick to the plan.......it works.

Enjoy your journey.

I must be honest.... the early starts were my way of avoiding anyone seeing me at first! Now I'm enjoying the peace of it 🌸🌾🐄🌳🦋

Thanks and ditto .... and have a lovely weekend x
