Wow! W4R1 I did it. I was extremely nervous but I smashed it! I kept my pace and absolutely surprised myself by finishing. I feel relief and pride. ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿฅฐ

There it is... great job. A lot of this is mental, running each run prepares the body for the next one... preparing the mind is a different thing. Keep the memory of this run and how great of felt to finish for the next time you feel the nerves. Youโ€™re right to be proud of yourself... and youโ€™ll surprise yourself many times with your running. Have a wonderful run 2

I too did W4R1 this week and couldnโ€™t believe that I actually got through it. That feeling is amazing isnโ€™t it? For a complete non-runner, thinking about running 5 mins made me break out in a cold sweat. Bizarrely Iโ€™m actually quite looking forward to R2 in the morning!
