I did it. I can't believe I did it. Admittedly the snails were overtaking me, but to think back to w1r1 which I had a couple of goes at as I couldn't run for 60 seconds to running for 20 minutes this morning. I am so happy and looking forward to W6. I shall be singing all day :)

Thank you. Im sure you will do the "milestone", It was nowhere near as bad as what was in my head. To be honest, I found W4 harder. Good luck with your run.

Brilliant. I’ve just done W5R1, and plan Run 3 on Friday. The hardest run for me so far has also been the first one. I hope it stays that way!!
