Felt great after finishing this one, today was probably the first time that I felt the benefits of improved stamina which was surprising considering I'd just finished an eleven hour shift at work today. Needless to say, before I would have just slumped into a couch (like I'm doing now!) as soon as I got in the door after such a long shift but for whatever reason I felt really eager to get my run in tonight, especially as it's getting darker earlier now.

Tackling the first 20 minute run on Friday!

Good luck for Friday and thanks for the post - it's given me motivation as I`m doing the W5R1 tonight - already getting anxious about runs 2 and 3 in week 5.
