I usually post the day after my run..but I am posting now, because I am very , very over-excited. 

I ran for 6..92 K in 50 minutes and 55 Seconds.

Close. Slow.

But, I can nearly run for 7K. :) 

PS

Full boring ramble will follow later... :)

Drop the "nearly"; 80 metres are close to nothing so you can already run 7K (and more, I bet). ;)

I was so hoping someone might say that..☺ I had something left..but decided not to push it😏

secanGraduate in reply to Oldfloss

I agree; no reason to push it when you know you have it in your pocket and you can reach it whenever you want. 😉

Well hopefully... I think I am built for stamina but not speed. Once I pass the..'I am tired' stage.. I seem to just keep going!
