Was a latish start tonight and ended up running in the gloom but I really enjoyed this one, just wish I could actually let her know in person but am sure she was watching me.
Don't know if it was excitement or what but had to hold myself back a little at times as I fair seemed to be flying along.
Distance run 5.05
Time 33.38
Average Pace 6.39
Splits, 1) 6.16 2) 6.48 3)7.03 4) 6.29 5) 6.34
The support and camaraderie of the group is terrific and helps carry us all through, especially those early weeks when the gremlins and fears are most active.
There are also a few people whose posts are to say the least are a little entertaining and a must to read (jancanrun)
This has been a wonderful experience at times a little frightening and at others exciting and the start of another part of my life and hopefully I'll keep crossing paths with many of you along the road ahead.
