Well I am so pleased with myself!!! W5R3 done!!! πŸ˜„πŸ˜„πŸ˜„

My first continuous 20 minutes run since I can’t remember when!!πŸ˜ƒπŸ˜ƒπŸ˜ƒπŸ˜ƒ

Thank you for the support. πŸ™‚πŸ˜„πŸ˜„

Onwards and upwards now.

First 5 minutes was fine. Then Sanjeev went and told me that I done my first 5 minutes.

At that point initial thinking was OMG there’s 15 more to do. But... I found a good steady pace.... my breathing was good... and I listened to my music...

I’m so pleased. πŸ˜€πŸ˜€πŸ˜€

The morning mist made it even more dramatic

Go for it. I’m sure you will be able to complete.... it’s has Sanjeev Kohli says... in his very helpful and supportive podcast... β€˜it seems daunting, but you’ve got this far, it’s your mindset that’s the obstacle now’ ...

I did a slow and steady pace. I slowed down further when I needed and just focused on my music...

You can do it.!!!

Enjoy...

Stay safe

Good photo of the mist, 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 πŸƒπŸΎ

Thank you. Am very pleased with myself to say the least.

Well done! πŸ‘

I'm afraid that the grin lasts all day, as does the urge to tell anyone and everyone that you've run for twenty minutes non stop.
