Postgrad run number 15 and have finally managed to improve my 5k time, which is still not great 40 mins and 7 seconds! The good thing is I enjoyed it once I got out there!! 😊🏃‍♀️

How’s that time not great? What was your PB six months ago? I thought so! Unless you’re going for an Olympic title, there’s two competitors in any race/run you enter, you and the previous best you. You’re post grad, and plenty of runs in, so you are the rockstar we all need to get through this. You’re a winner and we are all aiming to be you and very proud of you.

Yaaay Jelon! You can run for 5k and boy running for 40 mins is very impressive stuff! W1 of C25K, 1 minute runs! I remember it well. Go you! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽😁❤️
