6th consolidation run since graduating on the 21st of December and fourth 5k.

Have been really thinking about pace until now as I’m really quite slow 9-9.35 km but after doing some research and reading have decided I’m not even going to think about pace for the next month maybe even longer and I’ll just enjoy the runs more 🙂

We get so caught up on pace we forget the achievements we have made.

Get out there just enjoy the feeling of running and the sense of feeling free 🙂 That’s what it’s really about...

Spot on.........just enjoy gentle runs to continue to build your aerobic base before you even think about pushing for pace.

Slow runners live longer, by the way.

Glad you're still getting out there and enjoying it. I'm due a run tonight. 3 day break as I'm changing my schedule.

I'm with you. For the consolidation runs I'm just doing 5k. I dont care about the time.

We've got all the time in the world for speed :-)

Although, as I wait to go and pick my wife up, I'm hearing the wind outside and it doesn't sound good!

From what I’ve heard Runner’s don’t believe in a thing called weather 😂
