W5R3 is so scary, but it's all the the build up. I spent an hour pontificating before I went out and the actual running is so straightforward! Week 1 was most definitely harder than this.

I enjoyed it so much I ran 25 minutes instead of 20. #smashedit

I most definitely did not want to do 25 min, just scraping through 20 min was me sorted but chapeau to you. On to w6!
