Was playing on my mind so got up, set off, thought β€˜you’re joking’, gave myself a good talking too and DID IT - actually ran for 25 minutes. Must admit to it being more of an endurance test (never had much stamina) rather than enjoyable but I DID ITπŸƒβ€β™€οΈ So glad to have found this group to help not over think the next run looming. Thank you.

Really quite proud of myself. Might finish this programme after all - aim is to do a park run with my runner friend πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈ

Brilliant. Knowing you can do the 25 mins is so powerful. I'm on W7 and while I had a rubbish run yesterday, I ploughed on because I knew I could do 25 mins and therefore had no excuse to stop🀣

I kept thinking I’d be so disappointed if I stopped so just kept going. Well done o week 7 and keep on running 😊

That’s an amazing achievement - well done πŸ‘πŸ». You can definitely get to 30 mins from 25... it’s all mental from here on in, just need to stay focused and pace yourself!

Keep it up !
