One to go!

Amazed to say I have just one run left. I’m really slow though and if I try to increase my speed I start to lose control of my breathing - how can I improve?

You don't need to increase your speed.

Only a small proportion of graduates from this forum who responded to a poll, managed 5k in 30 minutes by graduation healthunlocked.com/couchto5....

Graduation requirements are that you complete three thirty minute runs, regardless of distance.

Improve? You're running for 30 minutes! Fantastic :-)
