OMG, OMG, OMG!!!!!!
I have just run for TWENTY-FIVE minutes!
I don't think I have EVER been this proud of myself. I certainly have never run for that length of time, ever in my life! Cross-country runs at school consisted of 3-5 mins run, hide behind a bush, climb over a wall and a leisurely stroll along the shortcut back to school
Happy, happy, Bunny!

You should be proud of those 3 mins sweetie! Those little victories are all part of the plan. It really is about believing in yourself so you need to bank each success to build your confidence. When I started this, I didn't REALLY believe I would be able to do it, but with each week I've learned to trust my body more.

Well done to everyone with their successes.
Denise - 25 minutes is amazing!!
I've just completed w5d2. Before doing it I assumed it would be the same as w5d1 and didn't read what it was before starting. When I saw 8 minutes on the screen of my first run I thought I'd pressed the wrong session, and when I realised I hadn't I panicked thinking I couldn't do it because I hadn't had it in my head that I was going to do it!! Did it though!!!
20 minute run next. It seems a lot to jump from 2 lots of 8 minutes to 20 minutes with no walking??!! Anyway, I'll see how it goes on Thursday!!! xx

I did almost exactly the same thing.....I nearly choked on day 3 when "Laura " said 20 mins! Thought I'd got the wrong week!
I was amazed that I managed it, because as you say, it does seem a huge leap! But if you pace yourself you'll do it.
One tip....
I never really understood the whole " concentrate on your breathing" thing but, whilst my problems tend to start in my calf muscles, I decided to give it a go. It's magic! While I focus on my breathing I forget about my legs! Simples!
