Unexpected PB!๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ˜€

I felt really tired when I got home from work today and also had a niggly headache. Found myself thinking maybe I should run tomorrow instead (for a few minutes) before doing what any self-respecting 'runner' always does - and reached for my running shoes! So pleased I did, as I ran a new 5k PB of 26:37, knocking about a minute (๐Ÿ˜ฎ) off my old time. I think the longer runs and hills I have been doing have really helped with my speed. Nice rest now before Sunday. Happy weekend running everyone!๐Ÿ™‚
