Don’t go too fast then 🤷‍♀️ Be slow and steady and finish with puff to spare 😃👍. It’s about finishing! 💪👍🙂

Nearly there now 😃

Good job... slow and steady on the last two and then work on pace 😂. Almost there 👍

Don’t we all! I’m itching to see how fast I can run a mile... holding myself back though!

At least you finished. You and me are at the same stage. I’m thinking just keep it steady and make it as easy for myself as possible - then we can’t fail! 👍

Absolutely right. Next run I’m taking it easy.

Yes you should be! Wow.

I am still under 4k in 30mins. I have to build up to get there. Patience and resilience!
