I was a bit apprehensive after reading many posts on here..it was tough..not the first 5 minutes though..the first 4 of the 8 was sooo hard!..then all came good and I hit the nice not suffering so much spot so hurrah!! It helped that it was cold and frosty as I tend to be very red in the face and get hot when I get going...very attractive I am sure lol!

Great for getting that run done, don't worry about your red face mine takes about an hour to go back to its normal colour shows you're putting in the effort 😊

Great job... they’re tricky intervals. You toughed it out and finished strong... enjoy run 2.

Brilliant, well done! I found that run soooo hard - in pretty much the same spot. Tough cookies us :)
