W6R1 did it tonight, down to earth with a bang after flying high after W5R3! Found it really hard going, sore knees, sore calves and knackered! But I did it.

Well done! I’ve got run 2 tomorrow. Hoping only 2 running phases will be easier, despite being longer. The it’s end to end long runs!

Keep going, good luck with run 2.

Well done.

I do try to warn people about this one. It is your longest workout to date.

Well done... it is different...but you did it:)

Well done 👍🏻

I know - I felt the same with that one! Really struggled with it. Well done for getting through it. I'm due to do R2 on Sunday. I keep telling myself I can do it - I did run for 20 mins after all...... we can do this one - we've come so far. We got this. We'll be fine. Good luck & keep us posted.
