Woohoo! W5R2 done and got those eight minutes under my belt...now to conquer the biggy! The first 8 mins were hard but the second fine, I got into a good rhythm. I just can't imagine keeping it up for 20 minutes πŸ˜•

Just remember not to go off too fast and you will settle into the run. Relax and enjoy.

Thanks for the advice, slow and steady πŸ™‚

No-one ever can imagine it but most of us manage it first time. Just go slow and then don't fall into the trap of thinking because you did it w6r1 will be easy.
