Just finished the first week. After my failed attempt on the first day, I have now completed all three runs from week 1. Today was tough, not helped by the heat, or the fact they were mowing the grass in the park this morning! Anyway, first week done and I’m feeling good about it. Thanks to everyone who replied to my first post advising me to SLOW DOWN and for all the encouragement.

You've picked a tough week to start, not easy in this heat/humidity, so well done. Can I suggest removing the word "failed run" from your vocabulary and replacing with "practice run"!
