Any tips? I've been looking at other posts about this run and most people find it hard! Expecting rain, as per usual and actually really enjoy running in it now!!

I've just finished Run 3 of Week 6 with no problems. In week 1 I could barely do the 60 secs.

My tip? Pace yourself. It's about completing the time, not about how far or fast you run.

Hi. I've just finished week 6 and found it a challenge but I slowed my pace a little bit and got through it ok. I'm finding it more of a mental challenge now as the intervals are coming to an end and the regular long runs are starting. Using the forum is definitely helping me when I'm having a wobble or doubting myself. Just have faith and keep going - and this is coming from someone who couldn't run for a bus two months ago!!
