Week 6 run 3 - smashed it, loved it. After nearly a week with no running due to work, i was a bit apprehensive about this one. Probably my best run yet - even sped up for the last minute. Feel great πŸ˜†

Sorry all (and especially Al) you’re right! I forgot that I’m on 28 minutes now (week 8) so week 7 is the 25 minute runs. 🀐 as you were!

Cheers mate! Well done to you too - it definitely works. I’ll be sad when this finishes, don’t really want the programme to end. Good luck for run3 tomorrow πŸ’ͺ🏻

Well done, especially after a break.

I completed this run today as well and am frankly too scared to break the routine as I am sure I would slip back and potentially not be able to get back up the mountain. If nothing else that keeps me heading out. Feel the fear and do it any way and all that.

I know what u mean - i feel like if a have a break, i fear i’ll be back at week one huffing and puffing after a minute! Just shows how adaptable we our. Good luck for week 7 πŸ’ͺ🏻
