I am starting week five today. I know I can do the first two runs but no way I will make it 20 minutes. Luckily Mother Nature has blessed Indiana with 80 degree days instead of the high 90's. I know this will help but 20 minutes is insane.

I felt like that about the 20minute run in week 5, but I managed it much more easily than I expected. Go into it with a positive attitude and take it at a steady pace and you should be fine - good luck!

I think every one of us was scared to death ;). Think about week 1; how hard it was and now you can run several minutes without walking. We laugh of that 1 minute, now :D You can do it!

Take it slowly and mind your breathing and you will be just fine!
