Right. have had a very stressful week and am incredibly grumpy and about to attempt my first 28 mins. Am hoping this dark mood has a silver lining as the last grumpy run i had was brilliant and got rid of the grump. Back in a bit to update if failure sent me into the doldrums, or if i am flushed withsuccess!

Did it. Hope yours went well. weird thing was when Sarah interjected with "only 5 mins left" i thought she was about to tell me i had ar least 8, maybe even 10 left. So easier than week 7, or pre run grump really helps!

Excellent!!! :) x

Good luck!! I’m sure you can do it. The run usually helps me out with stress.
