I was very happy with my 6:30/km pace at the end of week 8 (last Friday) but couldn’t match it in this heat. I wasn’t as relaxed and was irritated that I had to slow to walk for about 30 seconds a few times just to regulate my breathing. Since I felt I was cheating pace wise I thought I would just keep going to reach the 5k and altered my course slightly to achieve it. I’m so chuffed I managed the distance. 2 more runs until graduation and I’m hoping to keep up the distance for the rest of this week.
