Gulp. About to repeat W5R3. My toughest run yet. Husb coming this time as encouragement. Will be trying to conjure up that great post-run feeling to get me round.

Yeah I was dreading mine but did it last night with my daughter, she even sang to me to encourage me at one point( I nearly punched her mind you she was so full of beans and I was struggling with the last couple mins ) but I did it. She is only 30 and less than half my age so she ought to have more energy anyway. But I was amazed that I was. Reaching normally again before the end of the Cooldown and I’m still on a high today
