W5R1 did it!

Can’t believe I did it! I always find the first bit of the run the hardest, and my knee is niggling a bit, but did it! And on the last run I probably could have done a bit more. Conscious it is really ramping up now so was super conscious to take it at a nice slow pace. Really pleased though. Off for a nice bath now! 🛁 Ramps up to eight minute stretches next run...🙀

Thank you! Its still a bit niggly, but no worse than it was before I set off, and don't think it hindered me. Going to try and get some gel or something for it from the pharmacy tomorrow. Good luck tomorrow! Sure you will smash it! x
