Apologies if you see this twice! I thought I posted it but it seems to have disappeared!

W7 R1 completed this evening. I bloody loved it. It felt so comfortable and I got into my rhythm very quickly. Could have kept going but gave it my all for the last 60 seconds just like Laura suggested! Can’t wait for R2 now. I actually think I can graduate from this programme 😁😁

Well done. I've just completed w6r3 and feeling accomplished but exhausted. I'm also looking forward with interpretation. Bring it on!

Great! I also ran that one last night and I know exactly what you mean. I found I was on ‘auto pilot’ after a few minutes, and felt I could keep going. In fact I think I did run about 2-3 minutes over as I accidentally paused the app (again!! 🤭) after starting and had to check my phone to look at my call history to work out my start time!!! If we can do this one ok, 30 minutes is definitely achievable.

I really enjoyed running a different route too and I was spurred on by the fact I had to get back in time to collect my daughter from her school play. I was against the clock, but hey, I do like a target to meet/beat! 😉

R1. Found it a bit harder than normal and actually thought it might end up being a ‘practice run’ 😜
