Well done, it is a milestone.

I hope you are using dynamic stretching for pre run stretches runnersworld.com/ask-coach-... Static stretching should only be done after a run.

Ahhh well done that's fantastic!!

Well done. Biggest milestone I think. It’s usually the way that a not so good run is followed by a very successful one.

I read that wrong and thought that you woke up at 6, drunk...

I thought you'd come to the wrong forum!

Well done, Week 5 Run 3 is a real achievement; you begin to believe that you might just do this!
