Got to love a "short" and "slow" run

HM training is going well. I have been running 8K's 3 times a week for the past 3 weeks. My plan rewarded me with a comfortable 5K. ie just a gentle run. Oh, how I loved that. I was OK with running 8k, but it was so nice to just run for 30 mins, then stop. I wasn't willing the run to end, I wasn't out of puff, well not too much. I just ran 5.5K then stopped, stretched and walked home.

I love a morning run, sets me up for the day :-)

All change on Sunday. 12K!! Haven't done that for a while.
