Completed week 4 day 2 last night and halfway round I thought "I'm doing to die - I must walk" then suddenly I thought of all you wonderful people in this group and I kept going! Even running the last 2minutes UP HILL!! (Which reminds me I need to plan a new route...that was not fun! lol.)

I love this program - I cant believe I can run for 5 whole minutes now without stopping!! I struggled to run the 60seconds a few weeks ago!! Looking forward to my next run already - thank you all for being my inspiration!!

    Well done. Ive just completed Wk3, run 3, so time to start Wk4 Saturday!
    I cannot wait until i can run solidly for 10 minutes.

    Only just found this board, so pleased I did, as it really motivates me :)

    Great job! I am starting week 6 tonight and I still cannot believe that I ran 20 minutes straight. That blows my mind! Best of luck and you will love the results to come :)

    Awesome! It's really amazing how we progress from not being able to run more than a couple of minutes (if that!).

    I hear you on uphills, too. Not cool, lol.

    LOL... ending on a DOWNHILL is always a lot more motivating :) Keep up the excellent work!

    Good job for you! Tomorrow is W6, D2 for me. If someone had said that at 63 years of age I could do this, I wouldn't have believed them! Keep working on it and good luck to you.
