KellyAnn Posted May 9, 2015 Report Share Posted May 9, 2015 Hi Jeanie, That has been a tough one for everyone. I need to email them and ask as it is a major jump and then changes again the next day. Just do your best and see how you do, you might surprise yourself. I am going to ask them. This is a hot topic. Good luck and let me know how you do.

djplong Posted May 10, 2015 Report Share Posted May 10, 2015 I just took my 3rd whack at W5D3. Still didn't make it. What I *did* do was run longer. 1st time, I only made it for 10:00 - I'd eaten too much pasta for lunch and didn't have enough time to digest it. Ran a little after that but it was a bust. 2nd attempt, I ran for 12:30, took a 2:30 break and ran the last 5:00. Today I managed to go 14:00, took a 2:00 walk and jogged the rest (despite it being in the 80s now). Slowly but surely I'm getting there. I just keep trying the same day until I beat it. I use MapMyRun+ to graph my speeds and distances. Having those stats has been a LIFESAVER because I can always find something I did better than last time - keeps me from getting discouraged.

jeanie Posted May 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2015 Hi! Thanks for your replies, glad I'mnot the only one. I don't move on from an increase until I nail it as usually crash in the last running minute. Feeling I can try W5D3 now though! I've got a tomtom watch and it's great seeing instantly the seconds I'm shaving off each run! I'm in Scotland so run firsth thing before breakfast, it's a bit chilly but I can't go after work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
