Target 5k in 30mins for when Parkrun starts again.

Went out on a 5k run this morning after two days rest, not going for time just distance, but it felt quite good so I kept at it and I’m so nearly there.

10k slow runs on Mondays, two other 5k runs per week. Something seems to be working! You can see I panicked after my first split, when my friendly Strava voice said 5mins..... for my first 1k😀

Yes you're right you're very close. Just keep chipping away and I'm sure you'll get your sub 30 5k soon. 😊😊

You are simmering away nicely. Keep doing the same things and you'll get under!! Slow down your 10k run too. This will really help.

My 10k run is slow, but I can do slower, no problem 😂

Honestly, it makes so much difference! I'd also do one 5k with intervals in it or again go slowly (alternate) so that one 5k can be slightly quicker one.
