My first week after graduation and I am still enjoying it. I continue to tinker with my play list but I'm getting there . Today I ran for 33 minutes and I am creeping slowly towards the target as I managed 4.58k and over the 5k if you include the warm up and cool down walk.

Well done! You'll get to your target if you keep increasing the time you run slowly. Targets are important as an incentive, but not the be-all-and-end-all, which can be a bit too literal for some over-enthusiastic people who end it all by getting injured and never start again. The most important thing is to enjoy your running and stick to a pace where you are comfortable. That way all the hard work you put in to get this far will be a long-term life-changer :)
