Iโ€™m sitting in my kitchen eating a banana and sipping some water not quite believing what Iโ€™ve just accomplished?!! I have just run for 20 minutes, 20 MINUTES, without a break ๐Ÿ˜ฎ๐Ÿ˜ฎ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜. And it didnโ€™t even feel that hard. Well actually no, it was tough, but I did it! Roll on W6 ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜..

Brilliant!! Well done you. Tears are obligatory at the end of that run. Promise to take W6 really gently. It's tripped up a lot of us.:-)
