I've been sweating on this one since the start of last week but it wasn't half as bad as I thought it would be and I made it to the end! Started out with the aim to at least run 9 mins and anything else was a bonus. Before I knew it 10 mins was up and then when laura said 15 mins there was no way I was going to stop (last 5 was quite tough though). When the 20 was up, if I could of jumped for joy, I would have. Instead, I shuffled off home with a satisfied smile on my face.
