Man Alive, I feel shockingly good after that! Was expecting to feel like death after the first 5 minute run, but did much better than I expected and broke all kinds of records :D

Feeling good but damn, I need a shower! :D

Congratulations and well done. I am in W4 as well, got my R2 tonight but I ache so much this week, than in any other weeks that I have been doing this programme, can't believe just running for that bit longer can have such an impact. I will do my best tonight and report back.....

Shower's always the best bit!

Keep up the good work. All the new milestones are scary, but definitely doable. I worked myself into a right tizz about doing 25 minutes, but actually the reality was nowhere near as bad as the anticipation!

Just keep going :)
