Hello and welcome back to this very special spin-off series of RunPod.

This is the Run Pod 5K challenge.

I'm Jenny Falconer and hopefully here to motivate you as you run, inspire you to get off the sofa

and perhaps even we're encouraging new runners to give it a go. And I say we because obviously I'm not

here on my own. I have my top trainer friend with me, Faisal. Yes, I'm going to save that.

Top trainer friend. What's happening everybody?

Top trainer slash friend.

Slash friend.

Semi-friend.

There we go, yeah.

You see, I think it doesn't actually matter who you are, where you come from, what you do for a living.

Everyone has to start somewhere. like run guide, being your companion actually as you opt in and decide to give it a go. Well, hopefully you'll see yourself become a runner. Hopefully you now consider yourself a runner. And if you don't,

let me tell you this now that you are, you are a runner, but we're going to start by walking. Yes.

Okay, cool. So we're going to do a five minute walk. You know the Drew, everybody, starting in three, two, one, let go. Okay, cool. So we're going to do a five-minute walk. You know the Drew, everybody, starting in three, two, one, let go.

Okay, so this is the third run in the fifth block. It's all getting very complicated now, but basically, block five was divided into three different runs.

Correct. The first run, the long one was eight minutes. The second run, the long one was 10 minutes. And today,

oh, is it going to be your longest run of the whole entire program, 25 minutes. Oh, right now. So every

single episode has been about half an hour. So it's not like we're taking up much more time today.

You're just going to run for 25 minutes.

There's not going to be a little break for a walk in the middle.

You're just going to run for 25 minutes.
