Oh my goodness. I ran for 20minutes without stopping. True. Yes I did!!! I can't believe it. Felt so amazing I am going to repeat it tomorrow. When I think back it has often taken me 5 or 6 attempts to get through some of the earlier weeks and I just nailed Wk5 Day 3. I put my music on and powered through 4 tracks before glancing at the countdown clock. Felt like I'd run the marathon when I finished. Glory hunter ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

Well done Spinderella! So please you have embraced the joy of running. But please don't do it again tomorrow. I understand the elation, truly I do, but recovery is just as important as the run itself and the injury couch is the most frustrating place in the world to be!
