It is possible...to go from 8 minutes to 20 minutes in one step...and still be smiling at the end of it...

Part of me still doesn't believe it is MY reflection looking back from the mirror.

Believe you can do week 5 run 3.

Fantastic! That’s really encouraging. Just done W5r1 so the 20 is still to come for me. Good luck with W6!
