W8 r2 5k

Hi everyone. I am so happy. I just completed w8 r2. Inspite of my fears I pushed a little harder today and just managed 5 k in 28 minutes. It wasn't easy but mostly mental blocks, not physical. I've started meditation before I run and found it easier to control the mental turmoil.

Wow! That is fast!! Very few people actually manage the 5k distance before they graduate (it took me years before I could run 5k sub 30). Great going! You should be very proud of yourself. :)
