Well I can’t believe I’m saying this but I think I almost enjoyed that! It was definitely easier than run 1 and I paced myself much better in the warm up today. Run 3 on Monday before school run (it might kill me) and I’m hopeful I’ve found my groove!

Seriously, well done.

I know what you mean. Nerves were overwhelming on the first one.

Good luck with W1R3.

Thank you! I think it’s because I’ve never considered myself as a potential runner! It’s all a bit strange
