Well good morning got up a bit early this morning but still can’t run until the doctors say so so I went for a walk was doing about 1 km every 9 minutes with a couple of 10 minutes here and there anyway did my 5km in 50 minutes and still felt okay so carried on and did 3 more km total time 1hr19mins so quite impressed and still full of energy.

Thought I would go back to what I class as normal time and doing the 8k was quite good as I had done the 5k in 50 minutes and then decided to do a 90 minutes walk or go until I had had enough anyway got to 8k and decided that would do and found I had done 79 minutes so probably could have done 9 but just need to think properly about course and distance next time.
