I can't believe I managed to run 5k. My time was 32.46, I'm not sure if that's good lol. I went for a run at 5pm and after 10 minutes the heat was really getting to me, I didn't think I would make it to the end but I ignored the gremlins and kept going. I never thought when I started c25k I would make it this far but here I am. Only 2 runs left. ๐Ÿ˜Š
