W5R2 - buzzing

Just back. Wow.

First half of first 8 minutes was wheezy and quite tough. Second half was grit and determination until the last minute where I’d found my breath and stride.

Cool down was the fastest 5 minutes I can remember.

Second run was good. I started off a bit fast and had to slow down so I was struggling a little in the middle but kept going and found my pace again for the last third.

Biggest buzz yet. Real sense of achievement.

If you have managed all the runs before, you can do this. Good luck with your run, whatever it is x
