Very enjoyable, can't resist picking up the pace especially at the end of run3. Start jogging, middle section running, last minute running beyond my usual max to bust the finishing tape. Ooops๐Ÿ˜Š I ought to stick to my mantra of slow and steady for my w5r2!!

I do that too but you're going to need "Slow and steady" for W5R3!

Great stuff... slow and steady gets you through a run.... nothing wrong with giving it some at the end though!

I'll definitely try. Perhaps listen to some slower music rather than the Trance I like to run to!
