Well my final run in Portugal and I was determined to graduate! Carried on a little longer - despite the rain which was quite cooling - as wanted to do 5k again. Now back to UK for a couple of months so Hoping I can keep it up. The weight loss is about 20lbs so there’s an incentive!!! Can’t believe I have managed this - not bad for someone pushing 64. Would now like to improve my pace!!

Congratulations! I’m sure you’ll be able to keep it up, you’ve shown a lot of dedication on your sailing trip. Pace comes with endurance and power, long runs and shorter faster ones will do it. For now, enjoy your celebration day.
