W5R3!!! Who would have thought a few weeks ago I couldn't run for a bus, and here I am having just run for 20minutes!!! I was so worried I would have a bloody heart attack, the kids didn't know I had gone out, I could have been lying in a ditch!!

However, I am amazing!!! I am a runner, proper 20 minutes.....

Love it, can't wait for Sunday and the start of W6

You are all amazing too!!!!

Congratulations! It's a great feeling isn't it? Enjoy :-) I'm having 2 days rest before I start W6 although will probably be itching to get out by Sunday evening.

That's probably the toughest run - more psychologically than anything else. I'm still 4 runs behind you, but love to read posts like this. Great work you runner you. 🏃
