Its absolutely pouring down and the wind is horrific im willing myself to get out the door and complete w2 r3 whilst my son is at school and my new baby boy is asleep.

I actually really enjoyed run 2. So I know I've got this I just need to block out the weather conditions.

Hope your weeks are all productive so far.

I hope you manage to get out for your run without getting soaked to the skin. I don't mind if it starts to rain once I'm out but I don't like setting off in it especially if it's heavy. :D x

Welcome to the forum and well done on your progress.

This guide to the plan is essential reading healthunlocked.com/couchto5...

and includes advice on minimising impact, stretching after every run, hydration and strengthening exercises, all of which will help.

Enjoy your journey.

Hope you managed to get out for your run? Wouldn’t pay too much attention to the rain, it’ll get you at some point in the programme!

Take the opportunity to run when you can, you’ll feel amazing for doing it!

Keep going! 🙂

I made it out! The winds were horrific and I ended up with with a bloody foot from a blister. A tough run compared to run 1 and 2 however my thought process is when the wind drops it will feel much easier and I'm glad I went ahead and done it so I can progress to week 3 😊 x
