I wasn't going to post but I just felt so happy that I had to!

I just ran 28 minutes! I can't quite believe it!

The gremlins were there but I let my stubbornness win out!

Thanks for all your support guys! Hope everyone else smashes their run!

Thank you :) Just 5 more runs (touch wood) exciting and scary!

It is scary - and I had a couple of practice runs for W9 - but I truly believe that anyone who has got as far as you have will graduate - even if it takes a little bit longer than you would like! It took me two weeks to complete W9.
