I have completed this run! ✅

After struggling last time, today I set my alarm super early, got ready, left the house at 6 and ran for 28 minutes! I also enjoyed the cool weather!

For those who are finding this week hard, I can only say, if I can do it, you can! We’re so close to the end, don’t give up now!

Have a good day everyone! 😊

That great news ValeltaUk, well done for getting out there and doing the run! You're so close now, so just carry on. Now you've run for 28 minutes once, you can do it twice more. Then if you can run for 28 minutes you can run for 30 minutes. Then if you can run for 30 minutes once, you can run it twice more. Then you'll be another graduate from this great program!

Just take things slowly and steadily. Make sure you keep hydrated and don't rush to do too much too soon. You've already proved to yourself that you can do this!
