Hello running friends, I'm back!!

Well, 17 days after recording a 10k PB I headed out after work this evening for my first run since then.

In between a combination of work and private life general busyness had prevented me from getting out.

It wasn't particularly enjoyable and was a real struggle at times but I managed 5k in a decentish sort of time.

Pleased to be back out there and will have another crack at it tomorrow.

Run happy, run safe.

Yes Chris, that 34.15 time was a very "decentish" time for you today, the reason I say that is because it was almost the same time as my first full 5k in a time of 34.21 last September

Great time for your 5k. Hopefully you’re back in the running loop now and can enjoy the springlike weather. It’s such a pleasure with the warmer temperatures and little to no wind! 👏👏
