60 minutes run!

11 Replies

My previous "long" running time was just under 54 minutes / 5 miles so I decided (last night) that my Sunday morning run would be 60 minutes and see how far it took me.

I set off at a slowish pace listening to Coach Bennett with his words of wisdom ;) and settled into it.

I had to add a bit to my usual route to fit the run in as I walk a bit before and after.

My distance for the 60 minutes was 8.9k and I'm sure I'd have managed 9k if I'd realised how close I was. That might be next Sundays goal.

Thank you. I've surprised myself as I didn't want to go any further than 5k when I started :D I think the running bug has got me 😂😂
