So did the W5 run 3 today, was dreading it and so worried but I did it. Whooooo! I really thought there was no way. Anyone else doing that run it seems a big step up you can do it !!!

Well done! It's probably *the* biggest challenge of the whole programme (except for getting started in the first place). Very well done!

Chuffed as a butty??? Not heard that before :-)

Week 5 Run 3 seems like a massive challenge, but you've done it, you are really developing your running legs. And you're still smiling after all that effort. Well done. I hope you are going to give yourself a treat as a reward. :-)

Oooooo I deffo was very red lol you can see it starting on my neck/chest by the time I got home I was bright red lol 😂.

Haha it's some Wigan slang for you to enjoy :)! And hey sandwiches and butty are very different thing! Butty is one piece of bread folded in half ! Way better than a sandwich hehe
