Great job! W5R3 took me three attempts, it's the first (and last) one that broke me... It's all downhill from here, good luck with the rest of the programme!

Well done! Had my first attempt at this on Wednesday and was so gutted I had to stop after 10 mins! Will have to try again!

Thanks everyone! It means a lot to get all your responses! Looking forward to things getting easier ;)

Hannahod123, don't be too disheartened. I half expected to fail this run and I put it off for a few days. I honestly feel a run will come along that I won't be able to do as it seems to happen to everyone! I found it very difficult towards the end of the run, I'm sure it's pure stubbornness that worked in the end! :)

That's brilliant, Fentaz42. I'm a couple of runs behind you, doing run 2 today. Will take a leaf from your book and get through on sheer stubbornness. Good luck in week 6!
