wow who would have thought? I had the sun cream, the hat, the water, the bus fare, came back filthy all the dust has settled lovely on the sweaty sun cream skin - still no sun burn, legs are singing but wow I did it, roll on week 6.

To anyone who has this to come, you can do it you are ready for it get out there and do it :-)

I hope so too, we have put in all this work so we are capable - enjoy run 2 tomorrow, I just kept my head down and concentrated on something else (like not tripping lol) -it was a surprise to hear Laura say 1 minute to go, let us know how you get on :-)

Very well done, tor41!

And to all of you who are doing W5R3 soon (there seem to be quite a lot here): Have faith in the plan! You can definitely do it! I did it as well and the programme helped me to graduate successfully (and keep going after graduation). If I can do it, you can do it as well!!!

tor41, here's some advice for your next run that might perhaps help you: Some of us (myself included) struggled with W6R1 (it's another interval run). So if you are like me and the next run is harder and/or worse than this one, don't worry! I felt very disappointed but found out after the run that I wasn't the only one who had problems which helped me a lot! So, if it's harder than this run: just keep going! If it's not: Well done!
