First 35 minute run! Miles for Mind run 2

[SeeJillRun]

Feeling pretty pleased with myself after my first 35 minute run today. My pace felt good n is definitely improving n I actually managed to get past halfway to 5k! 😃😃😃 I even enjoyed the wind, it helped to keep me nice n cool. Plus I’ve completed 4.53 miles for Miles for Mind, only 45.47 to go! Happy days!

Congratulations Jill on running for 35 minutes your first 5K, that is a very good time, you deserve to be very proud of yourself, happy days to you, onwards and upwards. 😊 🏃

[SeeJillRun Graduate in reply to AlMorr]

Thanks AlMorr but sadly, it wasn’t 5k but only just over halfway to 5k, 2.67k to be precise lol. But it’s the first time I’ve broken halfway so I’m very pleased 😁

[SeeJillRun Graduate in reply to RunRunRun13]

Thanks! No I’ve not seen it yet. Looking forward to it landing on my doormat in a few weeks though 🥇😃

That's great you are so positive and enthusiastic. We are all getting there at our own pace. I huffed and puffed for 39 mins to get to a 5k in my second run since graduating. It was hard going! When's it going to get easier? 💨😩

[SeeJillRun Graduate in reply to Keston54]

Thanks! Are you doing any consolidation runs? I did 8 before it started to get easier but I’m so glad I did as my pace keeps increasing now 😁. Give your body a bit of time to adjust with some consolidation n you’ll soon notice a difference 😊

[Keston54 Graduate]

Just 2 runs since graduation yes will keep at it ! One of them being the 5 k and it taking 39 mins so maybe overdid it. Patience and practice ! That's good to know 👍👍

[SeeJillRun Graduate in reply to Keston54]

That’s exactly it, patience and practice. Compared to a lot of us, 5k in 39 minutes is just fine. I reckon it’d take me over an hour! 😂😂

Brilliant Jill go, go girl! 🎉
