Completed my first official 5k race (with the best reward possible: pizza!) My time was 32 minutes, rather than my target of 30 minutes but the elevation was a lot on this route so I’m ok with this!

Glad you enjoyed your run today and the pizza after you completed it, most organisers of events give the runners a banana after, but not a 🍕 pizza.

Where is this race? I need to sign up for the next one... I run for many reasons, but pizza is the best 🤣

32 minutes is a damn good time... that 30 will come. I’d certainly not PB if I was running for food, I can never eat after a fast one! Great job.

Not what you're looking for?
