Really really well. Absolutely loved it. Felt it in my thighs last night, and my knee this morning isn't too clever. You can do it. Good luck!

Last night I did W5R2 - it was pretty hard to be fair and I was asking myself if it got any easier! Then I asked myself if it was as hard as W1R1 and the answer was definitely no! I really struggled to get going on this so keep at it - you wont believe what you can achieve if you keep at it and do the homework!

Sorry - I do an organised session on a Sat with a bunch of other people; the homework is the 2 runs on your own in the week!
