56 female here loving this AP so far

51 and just started this on w1d3 tomorrow finding it really hard and will probably stay on the week one next week as well just to get a bit of fitness up. I actually hate it while doing it but have a great sense if achievement when finished. On the off days I do stairs and some strength work. Just moving is good.

You doing great. Go forward. Use repeats if you are stuck and cannot complete the day or you want to improve your pace.

Hi everyone! I am about to start day 1 of week 4 today! I'm pretty excited, new to running, and I have been loving it. I see a lot of people repeating weeks. I get that it's a fine thing to do, but I'm wondering if I'm missing out by not doing it. I go every other day for a run, so while I'm starting week 4, I have been doing it for 3 1/2 weeks (cutting out 1 day of rest each week). I get through the runs, they are a bit difficult but I haven't had to walk through any parts. Should I be repeating a week until I can run it with ease, or just keep going? I feel each run is a bit easier than the last, and I'm proud of my progress, but I want to make sure I'm progressing truly and not just pushing through and calling it "good enough". Thanks!!
