W5r2 done!

Ok, I was a bit naughty going out on a consecutive day but after yesterday's mini meltdown, I simple had to get out there today and finish what I had so nearly finished yesterday. This time it was much cooler to my great relief. I managed an average of 1.3 km in each of the 8 minute segments. Towards the end was a bit of a struggle but I was absolutely not going to be beaten by it!

Now there is the 20 minute-er on Tuesday to look forward to. It's my day off so I'll be able to be a bit more adventurous with my route.

Thank you all for being such an inspiration, I never thought in a million years I'd be so interested in looking at never mind contributing to a running forum, but I'm so glad I am! ;)
