Wow GMAN you're hitting the 5k mark! That's AWESOME! That would take me about an hour! πŸ˜‚

Keep going mate, the end is in sight now and you are going to smash through the finish line!

Thanks for your kind words of encouragement as I've surprised myself with the distance I covered today lol. Haven't really taken notice of the stats on my phone until today so I'm well happy 😁.
