W5R2 😬

I struggled a little at the end of this one! I felt pretty good after the five minute walk in between the two runs and I ignored Jo’s advice and started my second run a bit quicker than usual. At first I felt great but the last two minutes of running were very slow and the first minute or so of my recovery walk was more of a crawl!

Lesson learnt!

But, I completed it, still loving the plan and am now quite excited to try 20 mins for W5R3! I think I might be able to do it 😬 πŸƒβ€β™€οΈ πŸ‘πŸ»

Yeah, better to speed up at then end than go off too quick. Great job closing it out in those last couple of minutes. You can do 20 enjoy the run.
