just about to do it. feel very tired and lacking in energy today due to a very late night so it might have been an idea to wait till tomorrow but here goes nothing... i haven't got an ounce of physical oomph in me, so welcome to my sheer bl**** mindedness and willpower...

Course you will
physical battles today, the mind is fully up for this little run... it wants it even... but my body!!!
I DID IT!!! only just, but i did it... total willpower cos nothing felt right this morning.
thank God i never have to do weeks 1 or 2 again. i found them monstrously difficult. hopefully week 3 will be easier on my body. cos i really haven't got it in me to do these again. it's how i finished each time just pushing cos i didn't want to have to do the runs again! lol
Well done!! We are literally running the same runs on the same day. I didn’t feel like I’ve either today but I did it too. We can do this!!!
i think next week is where you leave me behind... can you imagine running three minutes?!! lol x
That's exactly how I got through them , I was NOT going to have to repeat runs 😂
i know the thought is so ghastly to me! i hated them so much. i am hoping to start to enjoy now!
I actually found week 3 quite enjoyable 😁
i have read others saying that...almost like a confession...but i am out and proud about hating weeks 1 and 2... i am dying to start enjoying this...and i will shout it from the rooftops too...
how did you find the leap up from 90 to 3 mins? be really honest, it's me
At the time I found all the increases tough but just kept the same mindset that I was not going to repeat them,
I always found the halfway bell good as I used to tell myself that as I keep moving I have less to do than I have already done 😁
I used all sorts of silly mind tricks but they worked for me
i do that too... those 'silly mind tricks' are really powerful...
Exactly! The increases were tough for me too, but somehow I stubbornly got through them.

my boyfriend just said 'you are so much less knackered than you were last week' which i think is jolly good news, don't you? i wouldn't have noticed. but he did. and it matters .

Well done D2C! When you *do* graduate, you’ll be able to go back and read these posts and marvel at how hard you found it.
I’ve just started Bridge to 10k 😱 and *ran* W3R1 this morning as a short “speed” run...instead of walking and slow jogging, I slow jogged and ran. If you had told me that I would be doing this back in August I would have laughed! I remember desperately counting off the seconds and hoping for the jogging parts to finish so I could walk.
The programme works, you’ll be fine
👍🐌🐢🏃🏻♀️🍁🧡🍂

Well done! I just finished W2 tonight as well and am really looking forward to W3! I can feel it getting eaiser and I'm sure you are too, if your boyfriend's reaction is anything to go by. The fact you're still keeping to your schedule and getting out there speaks volumes. You (and I!) can do this...
Keep going!
