Week 5 complete

I have just completed week five of Couch to 5K and run 20 mins non-stop for the first time ever. So pleased as I was dreading that. 😁

Found the first and last five mins the most tough - middle 10 were ok as I think I found some kind of pace.

Looking forward to seeing what week six has in store.

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 πŸƒπŸΎ 😊

Well done! πŸ‘ You must be feeling amazing after achieving 20 minutes!!

I am starting week 5 tomorrow.... and I'm trying not to think too much about R3.... one run at a time I keep telling myself 😬😊

Good luck with Week 6!
