Get Running Forums

I did it, managed to not stop, even if I was going quite slow. Just pacing is the key, as I keep saying :) Only problem was lower leg pain, kinda like shin splints but all around my leg, and It's weird because sometimes I get them and sometimes not... Just a shame because as a Student I can't afford...

So guys, I did this run this morning, and feel quite good after it :) Although they might not be pleasant all the time throughout the run, afterwards, I always feel good and accomplished :) I ended the 2nd 8 minutes and as soon as I started the cooldown got a massive stitch, but it went away quite q...

Just ran the first of week 5, and it wasn't all that bad. Got a bit wheezy at points, and finished with a major stitch, but i kept running. I suppose pace is the key, as I was running late and wanted to finish before 12:00 :P I know that running faster etc wouldn't change how long it actually was, b...

Finished week 4 last night, and it felt like quite a brutal run to be honest. I did get some cramp in my legs, but I only had 2 1/2 hours sleep the night before, and hadn't eaten much on sunday, so I guess it was to be expected!

Very nervous about Week 5 run 3!

Good luck when I did week three I found it tough for the first two runs. The key was pacing yourself. If you do that properly, you'll surprise yourself in week 4!

Did it late last night, and got a bit further than I did on the first time. Was really happy with myself, I'm enjoying this app lots

Did the run today, paced myself because I thought it'd be a real struggle, and actually, when I properly paced myself, I managed to do it no sweat (not literally no sweat ) but yeah, it was surprisingly achievable, and I felt great afterwards!

Well, the run in Wales was tough again, but my last jog last night went well. I paced myself and was able to do it, even if it wasn't particularly quickly!

Bring on week 4!

Didn't choose the beach in the end, had a run along a road that just went up and down - was still tough, rain didn't help

Final run of week 3 later on tonight, I hope it doesn't kill me! Got my dutch Speaking exam tomorrow

how'd you find week 3? I've done 2 out of the 3 runs for it, and they seem pretty tough which is a shame. The longer runs are getting me, and then from here onwards they seem to just get longer and longer!
