No worries, you can do it! You may surprise yourself. And if not then just come back and try it again. No pressure

I surprise myself every run! I know lots of people say it but, I didn’t think I could do this! But I can and I am!

Well done for getting so far already, I have just done W5 R2 today (2 x 8 mins) I was thinking I would never do it but just slowed the pace down and kept going and wasn’t as awful as I was expecting it to be.

You can do this.... good luck on Tuesday !
