Omg I can’t believe I just did that!! πŸ’ͺ🏻πŸ’ͺ🏻πŸ’ͺ🏻😁😁😁😁

After reading everyone’s posts about this run - I went out confident that I could in fact do this and you were all right - I did!! Such a beautiful morning for it too! The song on my playlist on the last 5 mins walk - β€œU2 - Beautiful Day” and I may have had a little boogy to it πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Well done !

That's a milestone run to complete.

You will be smiling all day now haha 😁

Be careful with week 6 runs 1 and 2 they often catch people out going back to intervals !

Thank you!! I’m so happy! Considering I always used to say I would never run anywhere willingly! This program is amazing and so is this forum for advice and motivation!

Yes I’ve read about the week 6 runs 😬😬 fingers crossed!

You're now entitled to a broad grin for the rest of the day. And you have a free ticket to bore the socks off anyone you meet telling them about it. 😁

PS. Watch out for Week 6. It's sneaky.

Yeyeyeye! I remember my 20 min run, I felt like a superstar! Enjoy! You’re well on you’re way to graduation now.

Beautiful run for you lennylion28, 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, you might be happy to have a short walking break with R1W6.
