(Also how can I turn my profile picture the right way up?!)

So happy I managed 2 lots of 3 mins. 2nd one was easier , is that normal?

Good to learn that if it starts off hard it doesn't necessarily get harder. Must write that out 100 times!

I'm pretty sure that I have been overtaken by toddlers, wildlife and mobility scooters at one time or another. Now in Week 9 and was ridiculously proud to overtake walking adults the other night :)

Oh good. Not just a one off. That'll be good for keeping us going maybe.

We're in the same place! I did W3R1 today, too! I found the second 3 minutes easier, too. What was very exciting was I was waiting for Laura to tell me I was halfway through, but then she chipped in to say it was two minutes! Woo hoo!

I think your picture needs to be right way up before you upload it to the site. There does not seem to be any way to change it once it is on your profile.
