I am on week 3 now (started earlier to kick start my 10k Challenge ready for an event in May). I am pleased with my progress and just the fact that I am actually sticking to doing a bit of strength work everyday. I am keeping things very simple so I don't have an excuse
10 standing press ups: using the landing railing so not quite upright,
5 x 4 bent legged press ups: I have increased this to 10.
4 x 10 sec planks: I can now do 15 secs
Hoping you are all getting on ok with your challenges

Great work... you’re progressing well with all the exercises too. Upper body strengthening makes a surprising difference to the run, and that core work will pay dividends too.
