Hardest one for me so far, was getting really tired and to walk some of the 25 mins, I think I better redo do before moving to week 7!

Any tips ? Any similar feelings re week 6 run 3 ?

Well done.

You are right. You should always fully complete each session before moving on. It is a training plan, not a check list exercise.

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

The longer runs require a different mindset and the ability to forget about time and the physicality of running, so find a distraction. Podcasts and audio books work for many or do as I did and give yourself a running commentary on everything you can see, hear, smell and feel as you run, in fully formed florid sentences.
