First official fun run signed up!

Yikes! I've just signed up for a local 5k fun run on Aug 19 to make this whole thing official with a t-shirt and some kind of medal at the end (assuming I finish and don't wander off course somewhere) 😜. Never done a real run with other people so I am a bit nervous. Got some new shoes yesterday so I must be taking this seriously now, right? I had a nice run this morn with 5.82k at a 5.55 pace using the stamina NHS podcast. I really like the 5min kick at the end. Going to rest tomorrow and take it easy.

Good for you for signing up for a race. It's a great goal and will keep you ticking over and getting out there. And there's bling 🤗 No other reason to enter a race IMO 🙂

You know the rule around here is you have to post a piccie of your new shoes? We're very nosey and love looking at new stuff.....or maybe that's just me 😏

Haha thank you Irishprincess! Yes I think I'm a sucker for the bling too 😀 and I shall take a pic of the shoes in a new post as I can't seem to add pics to replies.
