I loved it! I was so nervous I was like how can I run for three! But the community on here is so supportive thanks everyone! I took it very slow! First 3 mins I was tired I had to movtivate myself then the last three was I felt better and ran an extra 5 mins slowly to see how far I could go 8 mins was enough for me. But I am not dreading next week anymore either! I think the light rain helped cooled me down 😁

So glad that you are enjoying your running Fitness2025, congratulations on completing run 1 of week 3, you are doing very well on all those runs, you know what, you do not from now on need to feel nervous about any of the runs because you are doing so well, onwards and upwards to run 2 of week 3, you may have looked at future weeks but if you haven't, don't, wait until your coach instructs you to run, once again, good luck ✅

Well done. It’s such an amazing feeling when you realise you can do it. Keep on going and don’t worry f you have to repeat runs or go back a bit. It’s all better than doing nothing
