I am very chuffed to say that I have just finished w5r3!!!! Woke up feeling excited and raring to go, did my stretches, grabbed the dog and off I went my brisk 5 minute walk started well until I made the mistake of saying hello to someone which meant I lost concentration and went flying after walking on some black ice. Sooo funny (I heard the other bod chuckle too), but I wasn't deterred.
After this mishap I successfully made it onto the beach and ran, took it 5 mins at a time and before I knew it 20 minutes was over and I'd done it
Hope everyone else has had a great day today!!!

I'm glad to hear you had a good run. I like the taking it 5 mins at a time idea. Was just contemplating what week 5 will bring for me next week. Good luck for week 6! Tricia
Wonderfully done, hevskii!! Look at you...running for 20 minutes!! Now that is what I call progress!! The end of W5...that means that you are now over halfway!! Well done!!!
Well done hevskii !!! I completed my 20 minute run today, and adopted a similar approach in biting off 5 minute chunks. I try to distract myself so that when Laura chips in every 5 minutes its a pleasant surprise to know that you've completed another quarter of the run.

W5R2 done - you know what this means don't you - W5R3 is next, eeeeeek!
If you can run 5k, you can run 10k
W5R3 The first long run 
Don't run in wet swimming trunks
Winded ...but back in the run :)
