Easter achievements

I managed 5K! The first was on Easter Sunday and despite being dry when I let home I was battered by wind, torrential rain, hail and then thunder and lightning! I thought I did well to complete it in 50 minutes!

Then this Saturday I did it again in 45 minutes. Still a way from the 30 minutes 5K but I was still sooooooooooo pleased to reach the distance!

You are doing great Phoenix, not everyone can do 5K in 30 minutes.

 After a break of nearly 3 weeks, I managed to do 5K  on the treadmill in 46 minutes.
