.... partly as I've had two weeks off with a cold. So pace well down, and I was more than ready for it to finish - but I did it!

To be honest, I should probably have been doing this a week ago, but it's amazing how, when you've got out of the groove, suddenly there are all sorts of reasons not to do it - too busy, raining, dark, not quite over being ill.... it really is the psychology that's so often the barrier rather than the physiology!

Well done. And yes, sometimes the barriers are as hard to overcome as the actual run. I'm about to start week 5 on Monday - happy days :)
