Did it!!

Well, tonight I did it!!!! I ran 5k!!!! (in 44.44!) Under 9 mins per k! Can’t say I enjoyed the run but buzzing when I got home! All I can think about is getting home, unlike my partner who thinks running is addictive 🤔 To be honest I find it quite boring and painful! I expected to look back and see my pelvis on the path! Hope I can walk in the morning! Anyway, I’ve done it, will try and do it again at the weekend 🥴. Thanks to all of you for spurring me on and all the useful tips and advice 😀

Through time you will enjoy running 5K,

also, you will be able to run a 5K in under 40 minutes, I am sure you will be able to walk tomorrow. 😊

Congratulations on your 5k and a brilliant time. To keep it from staying boring could you find a new route or add some new music to listen to. 😊😊

That's brilliant! Congratulations. Particularly impressive to do that while still at the stage of only loving it afterwards!

Haha! 😉It’s just my knee that’s swollen this morning! Nothing that 6 hours cleaning won’t sort out!

Cleaning doesn't sound like the best remedy to me. Hope your knee is better soon !
