Pace getting better now, managed 5k again today. Huge thanks for all the support and advice, I still can’t believe it’s me actually doing this😁

5K in 28 minutes is impressive going.

Bless your cotton socks! No it wasn’t in 28 mins; I wish! I did the 28 minutes and carried on until I had done 5k because I’ve got a RFL soon. Also I need to prove to me that I can regularly do 5k so that I can start bridge to 10k when I’ve done week 9. I now know that I can run for 30+ minutes, so I’m looking forward to week 9😊
