Well I tried another run in my new trainers , 5K today, happy to report after cutting my toenails last night my trainers caused no issues πŸ‘

So pleased was worried I'd wasted my money πŸ˜‘

It was my fastest 5K to date at 36:49

And a fastest K at 7:07πŸ‘

I'm so pleased to see my pace improving on my 5Ks every week I'm managing to shave some time off πŸ˜ƒ

So onwards to hopefully another 10K on Saturday morning, on which I will use my old trainers, taking my time breaking in the new ones 😁

Happy Running all πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™‚οΈπŸ™

But Im feeling really positive ATM.. can't believe those 10Ks are becoming a habit now 😲

I've worked out if I do a ten, a five, a seven..ten 5, 7 I should just make it..but you're right if at anytime I feel it's too much I won't push.. last thing I want is time on the IC 😦 Thanks Peter,

Sun quite hot so sat in the garden a while x have a great day x
