Slow and steady what good advice 😊 set off today for my first run of the year and decided I would run as slowly as I could. That was my challenge for today. My past few runs I’ve been going too fast and struggling with my breathing so I knew I had to crack this. Had my route planned but when I got to the end I was only 400m off 5k so I kept going. Then I was only 400m off 6k so I kept going! And I did it! To be fair I was watching it count to 6k and stopped the minute it got there but I still did it 😊 This C25K malarkey is magic 🤩

Fabulous, isn't it? That slow and steady thing (add "unlimited" to the mantra now: 2018's word ;-) can lead you anywhere. Well done and wish you a lot more happy running!
