Nice 5k yesterday

Remembrance Day service in the morning, then the afternoon was sunny, cold and breezy so I went out all togged up in long sleeves, jacket, buff, hat and gloves for the first time this autumn. I went through the churchyard, apologies to Decker as I intended to take a photo but my pace looked quite good on my Garmin so I thought I'd keep going and try for a fastest 10k. I finished at 36.36 which is a best time for me apart from one Parkrun which I did in 36.30 but my Garmin clocked it as 4.97k so it didn't count!

Anyway, happy with that! Probably will never get to 30 minutes but I don't really care, I'm enjoying it! 😄

The “same” thing is what I meant, but the “sane” thing is usually wise too :)

You can’t beat running through churchyards 😏

Lovely sounding run there Joy.

Thanks - though it's so small, it takes me about 10 seconds to run through! 😄
