Wk6 done, 5k done... Amazed myself

So I've just done my wk 6 run 3, I never expected to be running 3.2 miles in less than 30mins when I started this journey, to say I've suprised myself is an understatement. So I'd like to say to all of you who are just starting off stick with it as hard as you think it is, as much as it feels like you will neverget there just keep going an you will reap the rewards.

5k in 25 minutes is impressive for a new runner.

Congratulations.

Thank you, I think following a guy who looked like a regular runner for a few was a great help

Should of added It wasn't in 25mins, it was second under the 30mins mark, I ignored the walk and carried on as I was feeling good.
