Kept the pace nice and slow as far as I can tell. Was feeling it in my knees but everything else ok and not out of breath in the slightest at the end. Go figure!!

Time seemed to pass without thinking about it and wasn't concerned at any point that I was going to stop even though before I started there was definitely self doubt.

Legs were nowhere near as heavy and tired today after I listened to the advice from one of you about drink lots of water the day before. I even abstained from a night before of drunken debauchery and offered to be designated driver just so I could do this run this morning! Wonders will never cease. If I can do it all of you can too ☺
