Finished W5R3 finally!

I really procrastinated over this one. I had got up to W5R1 then it got too icy to run outside for almost a week. When I went back to it I repeated W5R2 run over several times as I didn’t think I could run for 20 minutes non stop.

Realised it was all in my head. I decided to go for it yesterday. I’d had a 2 day rest and was feeling good and I felt amazing once I had done it 😀

Onwards now and need to stop letting the little doubt gremlins to take over!!

Well done joeyg76 !!! It’s an amazing feeling isn’t it ? So much of running is mental - something that I’m starting to get over with the help of this program !! Yes those gremlins are SOOO annoying !! Good luck for week 6 - I found W6R1 quite difficult, but have just completed W6R2 and really enjoyed it !!
