yippee - I've just finished run 3. Running for 20 mins. 6 weeks ago I couldn't run for 20 seconds!!! Amazing as I felt I could have gone on a little longer!

Week 6 here I come :)

Well done you! On W5 too, R2 tomorrow. I could never do distance runs at school even, and like you couldn't run for a minute before starting this programme. I think it's fantastic.

I just did w5r1 tonight and so many people seem to be completing the most dreaded of runs that is w5r3! It's great encouragement, well done! :)

Thanks everyone. Believe me, if I can do it, anyone can. I have lots of friends who run and have always said thats it's not for me, based on hating it at school. However, I decided that I would give it a go as I need to get fit and hey-ho, here we go!!!

Good luck everyone, you'll all be fine! Wk6R1 for me on Thursday :)
