Gremlins were late

The first one didn't turn up until I had started the W2R2 warm-up walk but then they started telling me I couldn't do this, very persistently until I had done the first run interval then they went pretty quiet. In the cool down walk I could have sworn I heard them plotting how they were going to get me next time ... we'll see!

Ha! They will have to try a bit harder than that, I reckon. You've got the bit between your teeth now and they'll not stop you! Mow those pesky blighters down with every step you take! Well done you.

So pleased that you're back on track. Well done. You know you can get the better of those gremlins now and not let them beat you.
