40 mins aka 4k

Well I finally managed to increase my run/jogging to 40 mins, still only reaching 4k but I'm determined I will get to 5k eventually.

When I finished I said 'yes' a lady walking by said to me 'well done you'! I thought how kind. The wind was strong and it was bitter but I kept going. Happy Days :-)

NIce gesture from that lady saying well done to you after you finished your 40 minute 4K run, I have only been cheered on so to speak by two people when I was doing the C25K training course, the first time it was when I was running run 3 of week 5, the second time it was on my graduation run of week 9.

Don't be too concerned about time and pace at the moment, that will come soon enough.

And I say it too: well done you ⭐️ 4k is my Quest for this month: at the moment it would take around 45 minutes though 😄
