Thanks everybody for your supportive words to my fallen off the wagon post from the other day. Being back in running order (ho ho ho), I decided today to recapture that W5R3 feeling. I wasn't sure I was up to the full 20 minutes again yet, but I slowed the pace down and just kept going. I managed an almost exactly round 3k in 20 minutes. I'll be back up to 5k again in no time! Well, not too quickly, I don't want to give myself an injury!

Well done. You did the right thing taking it slowly. There's no hurry and yes you'll be back to running 5k in a jiffy!

Good for you.

W5R3 is a great feeling isn't it. Hopefully it will have given you the encouragement to continue.
