Week 5 run 2.....again!

Just completed week 5 run 2 and I've gotta say I think I smashed it!

Although this is my second attempt at week 5....got through to run 3 a couple of weeks ago & just couldn't do it, got the most god awful stitch a couple of minutes in, managed to tough it out for 10 minutes but had to stop. So thought it best to repeat week 5 which I was really disappointed with but think it's working out for the best,hopefully.

Think I have been running too fast to start with, everyone is so right when they say go slow.

Just when you think you can’t slow any more, you can!

Well done on smashing it second time round!

Katymayo slooooooooow it down gal 🐢,

Make it as slow as you want, increase your speed as you feel you're able, stitches removed ✅

Slow is definitely the key to this whole program it made such a nice change to not be completely gagging at the end of the run! 😂
