Excellent! If you did it and enjoyed it you have a head start! Look forward to hearing more as you progress. I’m on W3 and on a rest day but, dare I say it, itching to run again tomorrow

Under strict instructions from my PT son I stretched, warmed up/down & did it all properly. I’ll still ache tomorrow-foam roller at the ready πŸ˜„

Glad you’re enjoying it!
