I was not looking forward to this at all, hype thought of three minutes running was a bit scary !

Anyway, I completed it and it was not as bad as I feared, certainly challenging but very achievable.

I'm off on holidays tomorrow so the next run will be in 30 degree of heat, that will be a trial

Well done for starting before you went on hols - many might have put it off til after. Worth trying really early morning runs in that heat?

Well done! Running is the best way to get to know a place, run early and enjoy the tranquility. My running gear goes with me everywhere....... Enjoy :-)

No worries, Good plan and just think of all your counterparts back in good old blighty battling through the wind, rain, hail, snow........ :-)

Day 2 of week 3 just done and it was tough ! I was out in the run at 06.20 and even then it was hot, nicer than running in the rain though
