Today it will be my second run from week 3. The first one went better than I thought. Today it may be worse, cause I am going to go after work, where I walk all day. But I will survive:)

    I'm on week 3 also, I had such a hard time on the 3 min run until I slowed down a bit. I'm kind of scared of next week though!

    Well done, keep up the good work.

    I’ve just completed Wk 3 day 2 tonight. I really can’t believe I’m doing this, after years of being inactive! Plus, I’ve started to enjoy it.

    I remember these feelings from the last time I did C25K! Someone on this forum a couple of years ago said it's about finishing the run, not about speed, and that really helped me. You can go as slow as you want as long as you're jogging, and that absolutely counts. Once you're able to finish the runs without feeling anxious or overly tired, then you can build up your speed as you go. Hope this helps someone out there!
