Week 5 Run 3 WooHoo...

12 Replies

Just got back from W5R3 and the 20 minutes non stop run and can't believe I managed it (I hoped I'd be able to do it because Laura said, but you always have that doubt).

Took it nice and steady and really enjoyed it, got in to a nice rhythm (slow mind) and Woohoooo...

Looking toward to week 6 now :-)

Fantastic, well done! I think that run is such a milestone for us, realising that, yes, we can do it. And if we can do that... :-)

Congratulations, very well done!

Well done! I've also just done 20 minutes, did not enjoy it as it was too hard, but at least I did it, and there is a definite feeling of accomplishment. Good luck with week 6!

Well done, I think it was because I slowed down a bit from how I would normally run...hope week 6 is more enjoyable for you

Well done! I have the 20 mins run coming up later next week (just done W5R1) and you've encouraged me to think I might actually be able to do it!

You really can! Take it gentle and you'll be grand.
