Yeeha just completed this run. I found the 8 minute one a big jump from the 5 minutes and couldn't believe it when i saw what run 3 was. It's taken me from Sunday until today to psyche myself up for it. I went super slow and Jo Wiley came on i was sure she was going to tell me i was half way, sadly it was 5 mins. Anyway dug deep and went into beast mode as my 7 year old talks about and got it done. Definitely it is mind over matter. Now a guilt free cup of tea and a jammy dodger is in order!
