Completed 5k for first time!

Just finished week 9 run 2 and hit 5k for first time. I hadn’t thought I would make the distance before finishing the course but just seemed to be faster today. Maybe the half banana I had before leaving helped (I normally run in empty first thing in morning). Anyway, very pleased with my progress.
