Well done.

Keep nice and slow for the next run.........it catches out more people than any other workout in the programme.

96 degrees..........................that is too much..........

Wow, 96F/35C heat, phew, so hot to run but you did it, congratulations on completing run 3 of week 5, that is a milestone run with C25K, onwards and upwards to week 6 run 1 but be careful about that run as it catches out some people with the interval walks and runs after the non stop 20 minutes of W5R3 which you have just ran, hopefully you can run it in a little cooler weather, say 80F/27C.
