I did it

Like so many before me I really did not think I would be able to complete a 90 second run, let alone all of them, for W2R1, but I did. I huffed and puffed my way through W1 then looked up correct posture and breathing exercises. Not sure if it was that or sheer determination!

Congratulations. W2R1 is planned for today but it's raining and it may have to wait until tomorrow. Is that procrastinating (big word for this time of day) or me being sensible?
