Well I didn’t improve my time, but I like the symmetry of 47:47. I was on track to complete 5k in under 40 minutes at the end of the first lap but I came across another runner who was struggling so I ran alongside her for the whole of the second lap. It meant I didn’t improve my time but we spent the whole of the second lap discussing James Bond, History and politics while still having enough left in the tank for a sprint to the finish. So I’m really happy, it felt like a good comfortable run and I made a new friend, what more could you ask for?

Well done. That’s a lovely thing to hear. If you both had the energy to discuss James Bond, history and politics you must have been doing pretty well.

That was very kind of you to slow down and speak to that other runner who was struggling about 007, Politics and History, well done. 😊
