Hey, well done you! I recently completed my first 5K and it felt great. Thing is, I did it on a treadmill and I haven't done it outside yet. I'm working up to it and will get there. You keep going. What's your next challenge?

I’m going to consolidate at 5k for a while and try and improve my time. I’ve really enjoyed running outside, the people in the park I run round have been so supportive

Nice one Dave!!

Nice one, I’ve signed up to the big santa 5k run on Dec 2nd and I’m petrified as I’ve only just completed w2 so I need to be ready in time. So I’m in awe of you right now
