What a great feeling, I ran W9 R3 this evening and smashed 5k on the dot. I never ever thought I would do it considering my PE teacher 20 years ago, thought I was useless and graded me an E in my end of year report.
Now look at me!...πππππ
Anyway next stop park run. All the best everyone, you can do it.

Very well done Sonya - it is a great feeling to finish that last one! Parkrun is definitely the next step - if it is anything like ours the atmosphere is great and very welcoming.
I was always last or second to last in running races (and pretty useless at all kinds of PE) - which is why I've never run in public again until now, taken over thirty years to recover from the school sport memories! Now I no longer care, fortunately I'm not over weight and reasonably fit but when will kids be able to keep fit without having to be put off by the 'sporty types' - that would help childhood obesity problems.
