I only went and did it!!!

Cant believe it, I remember posting on here a few weeks ago that I was struggling to move up to week 3, and I have just run for 20 minutes!

This week my breathing seemed to click and it’s all seemed much more “doable”

thanks so much to everybody on here for your support, even though I don’t post often I read about all your journeys and they’ve really inspired me!

First time I’ve felt really excited about this 🏃‍♀️🌟🏃‍♀️

Absolutely brilliant news! That was my favourite run of the whole programme. I bet you’re still grinning!

Sometimes people set off a big fast for week 6 run 1 while still on a high. It’s easy to run out of puff! Really concentrate on keeping it steady and you’ll be fine.

Fantastic!

It's a great run to get under your belt.

You'll probably be smiling all day now 😬

As MissUnderstanding has said, take your time with the week 6 interval runs ... They have a habit of catching people out !
