W5R3 is a tough one a real physical and mental test, 20 mins solid running, so to complete that is a great achievement....definitely earned a treat, which I’m assuming will be a few beers 🍻 and a takeaway 😂

Woohoo!🙌. Well done! 👏👏👏

Week 5r3 is a milestone in this journey or it feels like that... feels such a step up ..

But...

YOU did it!!

Watch out for week 6 - those walk intervals were my friend on the early weeks but they did me no favours ton week 6 even tho I thought I would welcome them..

You will do it!.. I know you will 👏👏

Well done. There’s a few of us on here who seem to have hit that milestone this week. Hopefully, we call all encourage each other over the next few weeks and graduate together. Week 6 here we come 💪😉👍🏃🏼‍♀️🏃‍♂️
