I am due to start week 5. I am dreading it, whilst I am amazed that I can run for even 5 minutes running 8 or even 20 this week feels impossible. My run is incredibly slow (I am convinced I could walk faster!), I am ready to die by the time it reaches 5 minutes and I still need the recovery walk.
Someone tell me it is possible?

It is possible! I did w5r3 this morning. I can promise you I can walk faster than I run. Just start off going really slow, and then go slower. It is all about your mind this week, your body is very capable of this by now. This morning I was nervous, but when I woke up I said to myself wow I've done it, completed week 5 now all I need to do is go out and run for 20mins. When I got out there I wanted to feel it for real. I got 2.8km including warm up and warm down walk. But I did run for 20mins.
