Decided to start this a couple of weeks ago . R1 was ok , but on R2 just started the first 60 secs and fell ( running through the woods) . Blood dripping down the left leg and sprained ankle on the right .... Fantastic !!!!! One comment from the mother was ' well no pain no gain ' haha .

All repaired now , So started from scratch again this week . Just completed W1R2 this morning .... Looking forward to the next one 👍🏻

Ouch, what a start to your running carreer. Better keep your eyes open this time when you go through the woods ;)
