W7r1 still find the first 5 mins or so tough. But once i break through that barrier I can keep going. Even when my body tels me to rest my mind will argue back and say no! So now im sat in Starbucks having a fruit salad and a well deserved coffee. :D

Wow, isn't it a wonderful feeling when you realise that your mind holds the power and can make your body do things you thought just a few weeks ago would be impossible?! I still find it pretty amazing!

Enjoy the fruit salad and coffee :)
