Not posted since way back at the beginning when the thought of running 3minutes made me break out in a cold sweat ....

Today I did first run in week8 ...As is usual I could have stopped after 3mins but it's all about pushing yourself so that's what we all do ....thing is when the 28mins was up I was 4.55km so I thought what the hell push on..I completed the 5km in 30 mins 50seconds ...I'm over the moon ๐Ÿ˜‚ ...my next target is to knock that 50seconds off the time ....hating it but loving it ๐Ÿ˜‚ ...

Isn't it just crazy looking back and seeing how far you've come?! 5k already on W8 is great, well done! Go steady for those last few runs to ensure that you don't get injured before graduation and enjoy those last two weeks!
