Rather pleased with myself; the pace of the 20min jog was incredibly slooooow, but it was the only way I could keep it going.

You should be very pleased with yourself, you don't need to sprint on run 3 of week 5, slow and steady, congratulations on completing it, that run is a milestone run with C25K, onwards and upwards to week 6 run 1 but be careful about that run as it catches out some people with the interval walks and runs after the non stop 20 minutes of W5R3 which you have just ran.

Well done you! It’s such a great feeling finishing this run. Hurrah 😄👏🏼👍

Slow is good 😊 I’ve been struggling to to slow down enough for longer distances recently. Never thought that would be me. But you will speed up in time. Just focus on doing the runs as planned for now👍

Well done on completing that milestone run 👍Beware of week 6 runs 1 and 2 they often catch people out with going back to intervals !
