Just finished Week 4 Run 1 and very happy! Running for 5 minutes straight seemed like some sort of sick joke before I started using this programme, started to flag towards the end of the last 5 minute run, but my iPod decided to play Eye of the Tiger and that got me through to the end Who else here has just started out on Week 4??

I too ran W4 R1 yesterday. It went better than I thought.

I have, however, ran it a few times on the treadmill beforehand. My ability to run on a treadmill far exceeds my ability to run outdoors & I have no idea why this should be the case. Although I'm guessing it may have something to do with my pace which I find hard to regulate when not on a treadmill.

I know there are others on here that run the whole programme on a treadmill, but for me the challenge is to run outdoors, which at W4 I'm still not embracing !

I think we all have to find what suits us & we are all pushing ourselves to reach that goal of a 5k run. Go us!!!

Hey I just completed week 4 run 1 after an awful last run of week 3 and feel really confident again, it was great! I've done this programme before and so I know it can be done you have to just keep going! I'm determined to keep it up this time and not fall into bad habits! This is THE best app out there! Week 5 here we come!
