I can't believe it. The coaching said I was ready and this helped my mind over matter. I am really pleased. Thanks NHS.

It's an amazing feeling isn't it, and that's the beauty of having Laura in your ear; I wouldn't have done mine yesterday without her telling me I could do it! Also, I have had so much support on here, that I didn't want to let anyone down...or myself. Well done HappyHeather and roll on W6!

Well done on completing W5. Please remember to treat W6 with respect - it's a lot tougher than it may seem, going back to intervals for the first two runs is not an easy option and people have been caught out. Take it very slow and steady and keep calm. Good luck with your next run and very best wishes.
