W5R3 done!

[Moomin63]

Well I did it! And in the driving rain! I gave up with the head covering and just went with the flow. Not sure about running in the rain 🤔 especially when it’s diagonal and a bit windy. Not the best! But so pleased I did it 😀👏

Congratulations! You should feel proud. S

[Instructor57 Graduate]

That's a milestone run !

Well done 😬👍

You will be smiling all day now.

Watch out for week 6 runs 1 and 2 as going back to intervals catches people out !

[Moomin63 Graduate in reply to Instructor57]

Thankyou! I will watch out but it puzzles me why this catches people out when we are used to running with intervals?

[John_W Graduate in reply to Moomin63]

A lot of it is psychological, after the overcoming the mental barrier of W5R3.

Congratulations though! Mentally, nothing else in the program should faze you now.

[Moomin63 Graduate in reply to Instructor57]

Sorry newbie and all that!

[Instructor57 Graduate in reply to Moomin63]

Absolutely as John_W says , I think it's psychological, 😁

I'm sure you will be fine 👍

Enjoy week 6 😬

Congratulations! It's a wonderful feeling and you are braver than me to go out in this high wind and rain. I was going to go out to embark on W6 but there are so many trees round here I honestly don't feel that safe when they are in full leaf in high winds. 😳

[Moomin63 Graduate in reply to spongecat]

Thankyou and I actually think you did the wise thing. God forbid if you got hit by a tree!!

[Neverhare Graduate]

Well done, it's been torrential all morning and I should have been out for a run. I'm such a coward!

[Moomin63 Graduate in reply to Neverhare]

Thankyou! TBH I don’t blame you I was having doubts myself!

[itselenax Graduate]

Congrats, what an achievement! I also went for a run in the horrible rain but bet I looked a sight running with my umbrella lol!

[Moomin63 Graduate in reply to itselenax]

😂 I’m not sure I would have managed that! I got absolutely drenched although was very pleased with the leggings (very expensive) as they kept my legs dry!

[Sussex13 Graduate]

Amazing!!! Well done you, such an achievement and in that weather too!! I’m about to start W5 and very nervous!

[Moomin63 Graduate in reply to Sussex13]

Thanks! I just kept telling myself I was excited to do it and it seemed to work. You will be fine. Keep us posted! Can’t believe I start W6 on Thursday😀

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate]

Congratulations on completing run 3 of week 5 in the wind and rain, 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 🏃🏾

[Moomin63 Graduate in reply to AlMorr]

Cheers! Will do 😀
