I usually save my long run for the weekend (would have been 9km today), but after only running once during the week, I set out to do 5km this morning. I felt a bit sluggish to start with to be honest, I blame last nights Chinese. But after 4km I realised I was on for a PB if I gave it a push. Managed to knock 30 secs off my PB and only 3 secs off the elusive sub 30 min 5km. PB now 30:03 😁, maybe one less prawn cracker next time.

Great time ScottJB, very impressive....I’m trying to do the same as you I’m at a 5k PB of 31:14, but I’m sticking with it and determined to do it....even if it’s only once!
Oh and the day before the PB, I’d had a cheeseburger 🍔 so hardly healthy preparation either 😂
