W5R3 - done!

Wow! Wouldn’t have put money on that five weeks ago, but just ran for 20 minutes non-stop!

For the first half I was just praying for Laura to tell me I’d done five minutes, and then ten minutes, but by the second half I’d forgotten all that and really enjoyed it. I’ll be grinning from ear to ear all day!

Well done! I'm doing my w5r3 tomorrow and slightly worried about the jump to 20 mins!

That’s exactly how I felt - but the reality was fine, really enjoyable in fact. Hope it’s the same for you!
