longest run yet... but still slow!

[sbrown1264]

Hello all

what a day to do a long run!!! a bit too hot for running, however I jogged for 42:55, 5 minutes longer than last time. I am still slow only covered 2.5 miles, next weeks long run will be to aim for 45 minutes, onwards and upwards, I hope.

I was aiming to do 5k today but when it got to 2.5 miles I thought, that's enough for today.

Why?

what do you mean why?

Why did you think "that's enough for today"? I'm not trying to be rude, but why not push on a bit further?

I did push on, my longest run prior was 37 minutes, so I added on 10% which comes out at 43 and also I was knackered! lol
