Happy run!

All day I haven't fancied going for a run at all, I put it off as much as I could in fact. I'm going in a hen-do this weekend and I knew I wouldn't get a chance to run at all so I decided at 7:45 to go ahead and do it anyway. I'd left it quite late really and so I thought even if I only run 15 minutes, it's still a run and better than nothing. I walked 12,000 steps already so I didn't feel too guilty.

Well I only went and did 25 minutes, ran 3k and beat my best time! Might not have been the longest but it was definitely faster than my usual and I'm happy with that!

I know I can run at least 6k if I put my heart to it and my first 10k is in 3 weeks so ideally, I need to be pushing myself a bit more. That's next week's challenge! Monday I hope to run around 6.5-7k and keep pushing myself.
