Week 5 Run 1 💪

[Feltip]

A little worried about starting this week, I had spent the weekend reading through various posts on here to keep me motivated and give me inspiration.

I went out at my usual time, just after 8am, the field I run on, opposite my house, was cool and just the usual dog walkers around. I love it at this time of the morning

Well despite my head having a fight with positive and negative thoughts I did the first 5 min run comfortably. 2nd 5 min run equally as comfortable. Enjoying the 3 min walks in between, enjoying the cool breeze and the early sun, 3rd run a little harder, mainly my knees hurting at that stage.

I did it, slow but I did it 💪😊

Run 2 on Thursday

This is great !

So good to see you feeling positive now and getting through those runs 😬🏃

And as you now know, slow is good !

Remember, strength not speed 👍

You are writing your own amazing success story 😬👍

Thanks, it's a funny week with different times

[Scout37 Graduate in reply to Feltip]

It is, but it's OK. I found the final 20 minute run no tougher than either of the others, and it felt so good to have done it!

[Feltip Graduate in reply to Scout37]

Not sure how I'll cope without the walking breaks, everyone says trust the program, so I will 😊

[Scout37 Graduate in reply to Feltip]

It's just a different mindset. You get used to it and start to see the walks as a nuisance. Promise...

[Feltip Graduate in reply to Scout37]

🤣 I hope so 🤞
