3 minutes sound impossible at the moment - I'm feeling like 90 seconds are killing me! Well done!

Well done! Isn't it amazing how every week its still hell but I bet you're looking back at 60 seconds as simplicity itself? I'm only struggling with 90 seconds but I remember how 60 seconds seemed unimaginable a fortnight ago. Bit by bit I'm sure we'll all make it.

I struggled with week 3, try running slower its surprising how it makes the run so much easier.

Good luck

Well done, just keep it slow in this heat, you can speed up again in the next few days when we will be running in the rain :)

I am on week 3 and I found run 2 much easier than run 1 - maybe my body is getting more used to it. I can't wait for my run 3 tomorrow. I'm not sure whats happening to me at the moment!! Good luck with the rest of the week.
