Great attitude, Dave.

W5R3's bark is a lot worse than it's bite if you just take it slow and steady. All the best.

Well done. Some days seem harder than others with no rhyme or reason. It's great you pushed through despite the tired legs - that's the way to do it.

Well done Dave, doing my w5r2 tomorrow morning and I can't wait! Looks like it's going to be my first rainy run. I am strangely both dreading and really excited about r3! Do tell us all how yours goes!!

Yes, I've just seen that r3 is a 20 min run! At least I'll have my coach who got me into couch to 5k with me on Weds to spur me on 😊
