30 mins and nearly 5k

I've completed week 9 and, according to my Fitbit, did 2.9 miles which is 0.2 miles off 5k, so nearly there. I felt elated when I did 20 mins in week 5, but strangely unaffected by reaching the end of the programme. I'm going to try park runs soon and see if I can improve my time.

Great achievement. Not many people make the 5k in 30 minutes. You'll be fine at a Parkrun but just go out there and enjoy it.
