W5R1- Enjoyable ?? Well yes...

Wow, I feel really chuffed at the moment. Went out early this morning for my run and felt on a high even when doing my 5 min brisk walk. About a minute into the first 5 min run I just knew I would complete run 1. I don't know why maybe just all the planets lined up but was a really nice run. I'm not saying there was anything left in the tank at the end but not total exhaustion either. Running is definitely peaks and troughs so I will enjoy the feeling for today and see what Tuesday holds for r2.

Happy running to everyone out there doing it. :)

Oh well done to you! Isn't it just a great feeling when you have a good run. I can't stop breaking out in a smile. So glad you are back on top of the world, life has such a knack of getting in the way. We're going to do this no matter what comes out of left field. :)

Well done! I’m still buzzing over two hours after the finish.

We can and will do this.

Well done! This is really encouraging to hear as I am a week behind you and always a bit nervous of what comes next.

Thank you. I can honestly say that I found this run easier than r2&3 in w4. Maybe just getting a bit fitter or just a fluke :). Will find out on Tuesday with R2. How are you doing with your runs?

Not what you're looking for?
