Week 16 of running and I’ve finally run 5k. Took 40 minutes and it was great. I’m not a natural runner, it takes a while to find my rhythm, but I’ve done it! Bit of a sprint finish too 👟👟

I did one a few weeks ago, didn’t manage to run it all. I work most Saturdays, but I am planning another park run on 27th. Looking forward to it.

I bet you can, and it’ll be a fabulous moment when you do! I was laughing with glee and my arms were in the air when I reached my finish line, which is a lamp post. I couldn’t stop smiling for the whole cool down walk. Still happy today. I love the endorphins running brings ☺️
