Wk5 R3 - Check!!! Buzzing!

I'm sat here all sweaty and red after completing W5R3!!! I am so chuffed!!! I JUST RAN FOR 20 BLOODY MINUTES!!!!!!

I was terrified of failing to complete it but just focused on how it would feel to nail it and before I knew it Laura told me I could slow down!

It was still bloody hard work and my legs ached the whole way (pretty much) but I can't believe I'm the same person that puffed and panted through W1R1 a few weeks ago!

Right must go shower now!

Congratulations, I bet you're grinning. Isn't this programme amazing? Five weeks going from the depths of despair at 30 seconds to running for 20 whole minutes. Very good luck in week 6!
