Post grad run number 4 .1 k in 35 minutes. Getting there slowly but surely. think I will always be slow but managed a sprint at the end thanks to my sis . Aim is to get to 5k in 45ish. Then park run when it's cooler .runners and dog walkers are a friendly bunch always get a smile and hello while we are chugging along. Happy days

Hi Tinker! .1 k in 35 minutes sounds a little short for your post grad run number 4. Are you sure?

Nice and steady sounds good to me. We're not in this so that we can be in the next olympics!

Its great that you have a goal. We all run at different speeds, so long as we are out there and enjoying it then that's all that counts at the end of the day.

Go go tinker!

Well done, but don't try to get faster on every run.

The guide to post C25K running healthunlocked.com/couchto5... explains how you need to run most of the time at an easy pace and only push for speed 20-30% of your running time.
