Week 6 Run 2

Post by JoG3512 »

Both myself and my running partner have sailed through the weeks and enjoyed the runs until this morning when both of us failed to even attempt the second 10 minutes. We just couldn't do it. I now am dreading having to repeat it on Wednesday. Has this happened to anyone else?

Yes!

I think a lot of pele find week six is particularly difficult because they are very confident after weeks 5's 20 minute run, and tend to go too fast, thinking that the runs are easier. Don't worry about it, and it it down to experience. Take it easy next time and you'll be fine.

Happy running,
Benjohn

Will find out tomorrow. We were going to repeat it but both feel if we hadn't of stopped for the 3 minutes we might have been able to go further so we are going to go for the 25min straight run!. Not looking forward to it, so lets wait and see.

I know how you feel. Managed the 20 min run fine but then struggled seriously with the next 2 but the 25 min run wasn't so bad - go figure!!
