I'm so happy - W5 Run3 never give up.

This is my first post on here but have been reading all the tips, advice & motivation since I started. Two girls, I met through the group, and I have just done our W5R3 this morning! We are all buzzing, so happy.

We just kept it slow and steady all the way. What an amazing feeling. For the total beginners out there, honestly, I can describe how elated I certainly feel. With the community here and our group leaders, the support is fantastic and I urge anyone to do this. I have met great people in my group and bonded with two girls especially and we have encouraged, motivated and spurred each other on all the way. There was no one more surprised than us when we finished this morning. Never give up.

Absolutely fantastic! Well done you - all of you. It's an amazing feeling and a big turning point when you get that first long run under your belt. Congratulations. Onward and upward from here! Keep posting (and keep buzzing) ;)

Thanks so much, It's a huge turning point and you could be easily put off by the big jump in time difference but kept positive and for me having the girls there is a motivation too.

Nothing like team work ! Well done !
