W5R3 - I only went and did it first time :o)

I would have bet my house on not completing it but I did - woohoo

I even managed to keep at the same pace (albeit my pace is probably slower than a snail jogging) and resist all Laura's offers of slowing down.....

Bring on W6 'cos now I'm starting to believe I'm making progress.

Fantastic! Isn't it great to surprise oneself in a good way, well done!

Thanks Suki_007, it was brilliant I am still quite amazed that I did it lol. Have just looked at the first run of W6 and it looks okay so am really looking forward to starting a new week whereas previously there has also been a sense of trepidation. Now it is going to be full steam ahead so I can get my graduate badge too.

I do have to say though, if it hadn't been for all you other bloggers I might have given up :o)

Well done, mcc65! It's a great feeling, to do something you thought impossible! It comes just at the right time to encourage you onwards, too. You'll be graduating in no time.

Thanks Soozz, I am definitely feeling more positive now and am really looking forward to hitting the gym tonight to get started on week 6. I'm also recommending the programme to friends etc who want to get fit :o)
