Graduated and getting better!

I’ve just gone and done it! The welcome break in the weather helped, with lower temperatures and a cooling breeze- although I had to hang onto my cap at times! I had hoped to run a bit longer to cover 5k, but in the last 5 minutes I started to struggle with a stitch and the route began to go slightly uphill so I was glad to call it a day after 30 minutes.

However, when I looked at my stats, I actually ran each kilometre a little faster, and the distance covered was a PB, so I’m happy with that! Onwards and upwards!

🍫 and 🍾 tonight I think!

Brilliant, congratulations MeandMam, nice the weather was a bit cooler and helped you to get your graduation run when all the heat was gone, sorry about the stitch, with a little rest you will soon recover.
