This is a good way of looking at it. It's 1,200 seconds.

You'll be fine, one foot in front of the other and keep it nice and steady

I felt exactly the same but completed my 20 mins tonight, you can do it, well done for tonight and good luck on your next one, its not so bad 😊

You will so do the 20, it's just a little more in one go. Bareliz is up for it, us Week 5ers are going to do it, so we have lots of shiny graduation medals, blinding us in the sunlight.... go you and good luck next run out

Not what you're looking for?
