W3R1

I wasn't sure what to expect moving on from week two but the 3mins were actually ok. Not sure it was the best idea to go out in a mild (British) heatwave as the final run was a struggle and my face is still beetroot coloured. I'm hoping this is a temporary look though! Still, can't complain. Summer is a coming!!!

Well done though! I was like that this morning, bright red and sweating buckets!

At least your body was trying to cool itself down LauraLiz. Mine doesn't know how to sweat properly yet. Nightmare!!

Ha ha - this was not a problem I had after W3R1... I was 'glistening' like a pig!

Well done to both of you! 👏👏👏👏

Got the best image ever now Bobbylou. Thank you. Next run scheduled for Friday when Carol has predicted 30+ degrees. Bring on the 'glisten'!
