Week 3 and lovin' it :) but...... !!

Post by samantha »

Hello all!

I have just started week 3 and finding it all fine so far, 3 mins not a problem, however...

I looked forward onto Week 5 runs and notice the transition goes from 8 minutes to a massive leap upto 20 mins!!

Now I know I am a couple of weeks away but I am anticipating this to be quite a big leap?!

Is there anyone that has done this and found it okay?!

Thanks,
samantha

I was worried about it at the time, but in the end I just plodded through it and it was fine. And I've done two half-marathons since then! :)

Thanks guys, I am so excited. And great news to hear it's do-able :)

I have enquired into joining my local running club at the end of the 9 weeks, I think I have fell in love, running is all I think about and itching to do the next run on my days off :)

This ap, without sounding melodramatic, has changed my life - I love it.
