Well after my wobbles in week 2 I am moving on steadily. At the moment I am not allowing myself the possibility of stopping and so far so good. Like everyone I am somewhat concerned about R3 on Sunday but am determined to give it my best shot. We will see!

Yes, not stopping is key. Week 3 is a step up, but you will be able to do it. Good luck!

Well done jane.

W5R3's bark really is worse than it's bite. Just take it steady and I am sure you will be fine.

I'll let you know and you let me know. Perhaps we can keep each other going as we're at the same stage?

If you've got this far, there's no reason you should be daunted by run three - go for it and remember how much you've progressed since week one :D

Not what you're looking for?
