I have actually done it....I have run for 20 mins. Not fast, not elegant but blxxdy determined. Was it tiring? Yes, yes and yes. Is it doable? Yep, a fat middle aged woman just did it. πŸƒπŸ»β€β™€οΈπŸƒπŸ»β€β™€οΈπŸƒπŸ»β€β™€οΈ

Brilliant!! There really should be a medal on the app for the end of W5. Big milestone and a big emotional moment for you.

Hope you had a bit of a cry and are wearing the world's biggest "I can do this" grin!!

No crying! Just relief that I am still alive πŸ˜‚
