W5D3 Today!

Doing the dreaded week 5 day 3 run tonight! I'm feeling pretty good about it because W5D2 went really well for me! However, the weather also decided to have about 200% humidity today for the first time this summer. I'll probably wait until later this evening to try and avoid some of it.

Would love to hear some w5d3 success stories for motivation!

I finished it!!!! It wasn't easy but I was surprised I was able to get through as much of it without getting tired as I did. The last 5 minutes were really the only difficult part, and at that point I knew I was close enough to push through it. I even ran about another minute after the 20 minutes ended because i wanted to reach a certain point!

So yeah, definitely wasn't easy but I'm so glad I could accomplish this! Feels like it's all downhill from here.

Congratulations! I also did W5D3 yesterday and was scared after reading about how hard it was for others to run that long. For me. it wasn't easy peasy but I motivated myself constantly and am so proud I did it. I have my first 5k tomorrow and having got through this gives a bit of motivation to do a good job tomorrow. Wish me luck!!
