Week 3 starts tomorrow

7 Replies

I finished Week 2 on Friday and will do Monday Wednesday and Friday for Wk 3.

I have to say I've enjoyed my first 2 weeks. The information on this forum is invaluable.

I have been walking since 23rd March last year, (thank you Boris), gradually increasing my distance and speed. I now do 4.5 miles every day which takes an hour give or take. I had added some jogging into the mix but someone suggested C25K so here I am. I don't go out if it's icy, I do an hour on my treadmill.

I'll let you know how my week is going. Good luck to all other week 3'ers.

Well done Chrimson51, 4.5 miles every day is very impressive. That’s set you up nicely for C25k, good luck with the rest of your journey, you’re doing great 👍
