Week5r1....again

β€’4 Replies

Well, I did W5R1 last week. Then came down with some sort of spring cold. So took 5 days off and did W5R1 again today and it felt ok. I actually felt ok, I can run for 5 minutes without needing an oxygen mask afterwards. Woooo!!! And not an ironic woooooooh. A triumphant woooooh! I have sneaked a peak at W5R3 and......I can run for 5 mins....πŸ˜€

You're going to smash this week now. It's a mental thing and your head is absolutely in the right place!!
