W7 R2 - Done ! With bells on......

After having struggled with the first run of the week, having a tough couple of days on the golf course followed by a massive sauna / Jacuzzi session, I am pleased to announce that today's run was the best ever.

I had a great stretch beforehand and my breathing was spot on.

I seem to have a weak point at about the 15 minute mark where everything suddenly doubles in intensity but within 20 seconds that has gone.

I know that there's some more left in the tank but not going to push it yet as it's not time to do that.

Back to work today with a late finish so need to rest up but with my recovery spot on, the future as ever is looking bright !!

Yep, don't push it!!!!! Steady as you go. No need for speed!

I am always very slow to warm up, so I extend my brisk walk to about 10 minutes and find that helps the whole session.

Have fun!
