5K in the bag!

I graduated a few weeks ago and today completed my first 5K. A mix of concrete and woods running. Looked at my app and saw 4.75K and thought ‘I’m having this’. Ready for a park run now I think and then working to getting my time to 30 mins. Or do I run further and forget about time. Hmm...? Can’t imagine going further right now.

Just run...consolidate the 30 minutes... try some new routes and have a look at the C25K+ podcasts too.. challenging but fun... the more you run, the stronger you get... and the runs and speed and distance evolve:)
