Rather nervous about this one 20m seemed daunting ! Amazingly ok and a fantastic sense of achievement afterwards,so when you get to this point don't worry the plan does work! I'm finding taking the before and after stretch advice very important and had no issues so far sticking to it religiously

You deserve a fantastic sense of achievement Sidmouth203, a big 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 🏃🏾 😊

Welcome to the forum and well done on your progress.This guide to the plan is essential reading healthunlocked.com/couchto5....

and includes advice on minimising impact, stretching after every run, hydration and strengthening exercises, all of which will help.

Enjoy your journey.

Well done completing week 5 run 3 You'll be grinning all day 😬

Take your time with week 6 run 1 as it often catches people out with going back to intervals

Brilliant. Well done. It’s a great plan but you need to put in the work so full kudos for doing that. Onwards and upwards (after a celebration, of course)
