My first 5K

Hello everyone,

I'm on W7R2 and completed it. Last Sunday, I took part in our local 5K run for local charities. The actual run was extended due to a fallen tree blocking part of the route. So I completed it in 37 minutes with only 4 minutes walking. I would like to say a big thank you to communifit for hosting the run, my family for my support and the marshals for the encouragement along the way.

Not bad for a fifty year old with arthritis!

Regards, T63
