This run was the hardest I’ve got so far. But I didn’t give up, I ran till the end, and what a pleasure and joy!

Wishing you a good day!

Well done; those first two runs in W6 catch a lot of us out. Good luck with R3.

If you tackle it with the same mindset you had in W5R3 you shouldn't have any problem.

I just did it today. It was my hardest so far too. I was puzzled that it was. I seriously overheated and poured with sweat. Four pints of water and I retreated to the couch and Netflix. I am not looking forward to r3

I found despite the knockbacks of W6R 1 & 2 being hard work. If you can tackle R3 with the same mindset that you completed the W5R3, you shouldn't have too much trouble doing it.

Tomorrow is my r3 and I’ll see how it goes, but definitely I don’t want to give up. Hope you could recover well, and change your mindset about that run. (: we’re stronger than we think.
