Well, following on from the advice on here to 'push on' & not keep repeating wk 7..I have week 8 run 1 a go this morning and comfortably completed it. I say comfortably, I will still breathless at the end but I consciously tried to keep my speed down all the way & I didn't feel like I was blowing as much until I was five minutes from the end. Quite pleased :) Celebrating with a Krispy Kreme Halloween Doughnut...oops.

Well done. These last few runs are more mental than physical. You can do this. You have the fitness. Keep telling yourself this and you WILL graduate.

Happy running
