I did 30 mins run this morning (instead of 28) but I ran the same distance as I did Tuesday in 28 mins so I don't know whether to be happy or annoyed at myself.

well done mumto2 and skintlass, you should both be proud of yourselves.

One of the mums at school this morning asked if i was doing the 10k on sat because she seen me out training , i must've looked sporty, i was quite chuffed.

Well done Elfen :T it is a great feeling isn't it!!

Back from my wk 5 run 2 - managed it but it was really hard It seems such a big jump from 2 x 8mins to 20 mins, will give it a go but although so far I have surprised myself I don't think I will be doing so on the next one...:(

The other thing is, I would have thought I would have been getting further by running more but today I didn't get as far as I have before - I am obviously running realllly slooowwwwllly

Mumto2 Good luck tonight, hope its a great atmosphere for you even if the weather isn't great...I too prefer cooler weather though to blazing hot sun....

hi long time lurker but new member so hi all

ive got wk 5 run 2 tonight and cant see how im going to go from two lots of 8 minutes to a 20 minute run. Has anyone done it, is it tough. im dreading it and already thinking i havent got a chance.

Hi Treetrunks - there are a few of us who have done it, even when we didn't think we could. take it steady and see how you go is my advice :-). Good luck.

Treetrunks - welcome onboard - you're in the right place for support!

I started this program 10 weeks ago and was struggling to run for 1 min x 6. Last night, I ran the 5km race for life. So am living proof that it can be done :T

Go for it!

Treetrunks, we will be trying it together this week (not literally of course ) I am going to give it a try but if I don't manage it think I will repeat this week...

:TMumto2 well done on your raceforlife...

Skintlass, don't be annoyed at yourself about the time/distance, its just amazing that you can run for 30 mins to me :T
