Was a bit nervous about it, given I was so happy with r1 on Saturday, but it was fine (with hindsight! At the time it was pretty tough though!). Had my 15 year old daughter with me which also worried me as I thought I would be tempted to go faster so she wouldn't think I was running like a mum, but in fact I didn't because I couldn't!!!!!! She was brilliant and just kept pace with me! Found the 5 minute runs felt like they would never end but of course they did and felt so so good when it was all over. And I did have the cooked breakfast afterwards but am saving the hot tub till later this evening π good luck to all who are also ploughing through w4 - I understand I am now only 1 run away from the week from hell! Please someone tell me w5 is not as bad as I am imagining!!!!

Back thurs...you are going great guns and I'm sure reading these posts will keep me keen
