I ran my fourth sub 30 minutes 5K this evening, 29:54 (just made it by seconds!!). My splits were 6:23, 6:05, 5:56, 5:36, 5:26 💪💪🏃🏻‍♀️🏃🏻‍♀️🏃🏻‍♀️🏃🏻‍♀️🏃🏻‍♀️

I have had a really busy day today and felt so tired after working two long days. It did cross my mind for a split second not to go for a run, but I knew due to my rota I would not be able to fit my 3 runs in next week and I didn’t want that, so although I felt really tired I decided I would go for my run at 5pm which is late for me!!!

I mixed everything up today! Time I went for run, music and route. I ended up running over Chelsea Bridge, (so pretty and magical all lit up) and along the river heading towards Vauxhall bridge. It felt like a good steady run, although I was tired (I could feel it whilst running) plus the cold 🥶 🥶🥶I felt so much better after the run (as I always do!) and proud of myself for getting out there and being on track to complete week five on Sunday⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.

Sparkly legging update, I got a full refund so I am delighted.

Happy Running fellow runners 🏃🏻‍♀️💪🐻🐻🐻

Brilliant on doing another sub 30mins 5k, good splits. I got out today too after a long break due to runners knee and it was pretty cold. Did you do gait analysis before getting your shoes?

Thank you Caley67, welcome back!

Well done on your run, sorry you have been injured hope your knee is better. Yes so cold at the moment. Best thing I did makes such a difference having the correct running shoes. Would recommend it.

Thank you very much Julia. I had to get out there as I wanted to stay on plan for the week.

Very pleased, I ordered a different pair, same material as I have already (thicker) but will be sparkling inside in my heart when I run!!!

Enjoy your next run and cycle

Thank you so much Sola yes it is very pretty, started to venture out of the park now!!

I find it a lot harder I must say. I only had one day off and lots to get done I should had done run first.

Yes they were very good I thought I was going to have problems

Take care and well done on your fastest KM

We usually run in the park and surrounding areas but for my ling run last week I went along the seafront and it was lovely. One thing I did notice in the busier parts was i had to dodge people they didn’t even see me which was encouraging

Well done. Those split times are really fast. I remember when I used to run sub 30 mins 5K at the gym and I would be sprinting for the last 5 minutes. I doubt I’d be able to sustain such a fast pace all the way around. Excellent.

Fantastic run - and just look at those splits! Especially as you felt tired. But you grabbed that opportunity to run and smashed it! Brilliant!Chelsea Bridge sounds so pretty - I haven't been up to London since I started working from home in March.

Many thanks Birdlady64, I was so glad I went out even though I felt so tired.

Great that you have been able to work from home, do you miss going into work?

When I run again in the evening I will take some pictures after my run.

Take care
