Just completed my 3rd run of 25 mins. I'm happy with my progress . I've noticed without even trying that my pace per km and cadence has improved from the 1st 25 min run to the 3rd 25 mins run. Just shows that as your fitness improves so does your pace. Next run will be 28 mins.

Congratulations to you rungranny on completing your 3rd 25 minute run of week 7, it actually was your 4th 25 minute run as run 3 of week 6 is also 25 minutes, onwards and upwards to week 8 which as you say is 28 minutes, 3/28 minute runs altogether, not long now until you graduate.

Fantastic news! How did it feel as you were running?

You'll nail that next run. Watch out 28 minutes because Rungranny is coming for you!

Really good luck ❤️

I think that somewhere in past posts... I told you so:)

It evolves, usually, without us even realising it... slow and steady, following the programme and enjoying the whole darned thing!

HUGE well done to you! Onwards and Upward!

Well done Punkmummy. It feels good when the runs are over. Still tough going but small improvements every run all add up. Keep going.
