Despite a false start with an app error we completed it! We were so pleased :) :) as I said in my previous posts we were really dreading week 5 especially this run and reading everyone elses troubles with week 5 we didn't have high hopes of completing it at the end of Week 4 (which we did twice in preparation).

Really pleased and thanks for all your encouragement! On to week 6 on Monday!

Thank you! We both really enjoyed it actually, not during the run! haha!! but afterwards we were both smiling! I think it helps to have a running partner in our case....you don't want to let the other person down!

Well done to both of you girls! :)

I guess it is a massive bonus to run with a colleague as you both want to help each other and not let each other down. Good thinking!

All the best to both of you with week 6. Remember...slow and steady! (Don't get caught out like some us nearly did!) ;)
