Wk2

[Islaevie20]

Just completed my wk2 but struggled today, I was fine on the first two runs but found it hard today! Weekend rest now then into wk3 on Monday 🙈

Well done.If you struggle on any run, just slow down.

Can you speak aloud, clear, ungasping sentences as you run?.........if not, you are going too fast.

Slowing down to the recommended easy conversational pace makes it more achievable and for most, more enjoyable.

Thanks, I think you’re right, I did feel like was going a bit faster today

Good luck Islaevie20 - I'm at the same stage as you, I also found the 3rd run of W2 hard. I plan to begin W3 on Sunday.

Good luck to you too 🤞🤞

Hi, have you done w3r1 now? I’ve just done it and knew it would be harder but I managed it! I realise I need to put my knee support on now as I’m quite heavy on my feet and it’s getting painful now!

Good luck 👍

Hi, Well done for doing W3R1! I did it yesterday morning - I listened to Laura and made sure I didn't go too fast, and found it slightly easier than I expected!

Well done! I did the same thing, I think my jogging is slower than my walking speed but I’m not really bothered, speed will come! Good luck for the rest of the week x

Sometimes you just have to tell yourself now and again to slow down while you are on your run. Especially at the beginning.
