Did W5R3 yesterday after my three day rest! Was totally looking forward to it and then i go and misplace my ear phones! No option but to run without the podcasts.... And a 20 minute stretch to boot. Wasn't sure I could do it when I started but imagined all of you running with me, encouraging me to stay slow and steady and that helped. So thank you everyone for the advice on resting enough and slowing down the pace! And yes the runner's high is back!๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜

Bit given how great W4R3 was and how tough W5R1 was, I'm going to approach W6 cautiously.

Brilliant!!!! Tryinghard2016 to run for twenty minutes seems so unthinkable at the start, but you have done it, well done :)

Well done. I'm so glad you found your runners high again. Running for 20 minutes is a real achievement - you runner you๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ˜€ and to do it without Laura you are a star !

Thank you, thank you for the encouragement last week and your kind words now! I'm thrilled but moving on to W6 a bit more cautiously.
