Well I’ve managed the first one. Lovely bright morning with a nice cool breeze.

Managed the full 30 minutes but only covered 3.82km. I have decided I am going to try and graduate and then work on picking up speed, mind you when I slowed down to the end walk my legs turned to marshmallow and I looked like I belonged to the ministry of funny walks 🤣🤣

Well done on acheiving running for 30 minutes! That is the goal although I know the title 0to5k is misleading. As you keep running over time your pace will naturally pick up. But for now enjoy the buzz of running. Congratulations 😊🏃‍♀️

I love the statement “only covered 3.82km” you have “only” gone achieved something that you should be very pleased with!!!! I thought the funny walk brigade was a mandatory thing we all did!!!!!!
