5k milestone

So pleased to run 5k without walking today. Don’t know if it the new shoes, the sunshine, the promise of a medal, the companionship of fellow runners or the fact that I am just getting stronger. Not managed it since early Nov when I graduated from C25k (and was determined not to walk). Today the effort felt manageable and my pace was respectable. Feel I now have a solid foundation to build on. Going to use it to claim my Mother’s Day 5k medal. Grateful for the ‘Kat’ family for being out there on the circuit with me (social distancing of course).
