So I wanted to try 26 today did that then thought still feel ok so 27 then why not go for the 28 minutes.

Well that was it I then had to do the full 30 just to prove it was possible. Feel great now would never have thought it possible even 5 weeks ago.

I was scared at failing at the final hurdle though why I wouldnt be able to go from 25 to 30 when we jumped from 8 to 20 in week 5.

Anyway thanks for the comments and well done joonie too.

I've just ran week 7 run 3 tonight. I run with my husband who has been running for the last 10years but his a great running partner. I really enjoyed the run tonight, we ran a different route & I was a bit worried because its got more hills but I surprised myself. I'm now looking forward to next week. This program is so good I'd recommend it to anyone.
