W5 cracked!

Huge thanks to all the encouragement on here after I didn't quite make it through Run 3 on Friday. Tried it again this morning and nailed it!

Took all the advice on board - went REAL slow, which I'm sure was the clincher, but also switched my route round to avoid an uphill finish and changed my music.

Feel good :)

Well done. That's a big milestone out of the way. It's when a lot of us realise that we are runners and yes we can finish the programme. Onwards now and enjoy the last few weeks. ☺

Well done!! That's amazing. It's great that you didn't let one small blip put you off, you went back out there and nailed it. My next run is Week5Run3, hopefully mine goes as successfully as yours did today =]
