Loved it... no gadgets just my watch to time the run... no podcast, music or headphones... free as a bird πŸ‘ŒπŸΌ

Picked a lovely loop 5k run (not yet getting to 5k in 30 mins yet so more than enough)

Felt good, slow and steady pace and bags of energy, felt like I could have carried on. I didn’t though, I behaved as have read all the warnings of not doing to much to quickly after graduation. Just pleased to be comfortable running 30 mins. Think the cooler weather helped lots too πŸ˜ƒ

Fantastic! Good for you! πŸ˜ƒ

I love your β€œfree as a bird β€œand would aspire to be like that. Unfortunately, no earphones for me means β€œgoodness do I really breathe loud & sound that heavy on my feet?” πŸ˜‚

Yes that’s why I do it πŸ˜‚ I’m too heavy on my feet and set off too fast with music on, the only way I can find my own pace is to listen to my foot fall at the moment πŸ™„ just doesn’t work for me if I listen to music unfortunately πŸ™ˆ
