Must admit, I did drop two of the runs - just couldn't psyche myself up to it by that point! - and did have a sit down about half way through. But given how generally unhealthy I am, I don't think I did too bad! (Can see myself doing W1 at least twice though...)

According to my phone's (stock) exercise app: 2.77 km distance, max pace 6m40/km, avg pace 10m11/km. I feel I probably should have selected 'run' rather than 'walk' on that app though...!

I started wk1 this morning, been feeling great all day!!

Thanks everyone. I'm proud of myself. Not been gym since Jan as I'd torn a ligament in my leg & had to freeze my membership. I also had hystrecomy 9 weeks ago. I managed all the runs too. Tired now. Well done everyone & good luck.xxx
