I managed my w5r3 . ...I ran for 20 whole minutes. Me...the girl who never managed the 1500m at school when I was relatively slim and fit. Amazing!

Well done you!

Great feeling isn't it?

I was similarly useless at cross country at school - now I'd run everyday if the folk on here didn't keep reminding us how important the rest days are 😉
