OMG that was awesome!! I cannot believe I have just done that. I didn't even notice my headache (that I have had all day) while I was running. This programme is incredible. I am not sure that I have ever run for 20 mins non stop in my entire life. Sorry, I am babbling - too many endorphins!

For anyone worrying about this run, Listen to Laura and trust the programme - it works!

Congratulations.

Now you've done it, you can't understand what all the fuss is about, can you? Just keep this up and you'll soon be at week 9 with another 10 minutes added to your time (just don't step ahead too quickly - follow the programme...)

It's a great feeling isn't it? When I did W5r3 I bumped into someone from work & I could hardly string a sentence together I was so excited. Her husband must have wondered who the babbling sweaty idiot was!

Fortunately my son made chocolate brownies at school and I have just had a big chunk!
