2nd Consolidation run made 5k

Just did my 2nd consolation run since graduating. I was feeling tired but OK so decided to run to 5k and see how long it took. I managed 34.56 which I’m pleased with considering I’m in my late 50’s and have never run before.

The plan going forward is to do 3 runs a week building stamina and endurance and try to make the middle run 5k each time.

It’s great to do that first 5k e-beans. Well Done. My first was at parkrun and I’ve been going ever since. Highly recommended!
