Well what a nice suprise for a cold February evening, W8R2 and I produced a 31min 5km! It was a cold evening here in S Wales and I'd had a rubbish day in work, two sickly grehounds to contend with over the past few days so not much sleep but I ventured out anyway.
I returned to my local 'around the streets' route that I havent used for the last few weeks, headtorch on, winter leggings and off I went. Laura giving me instructions, although to be fair at this time duration, 28mins, the instructions are few and far between. Nevertheless I plodded on and as what I assumed was the end of the session looming my headphones stopped working so I had no idea what the time was. I therefore carried on until I ran out of road, Forest Gump like...
Low and behold my Strav app bleeps on my phone, I have a quick glance, struggling to swipe with my trusty Ronhill winter running gloves and I almost fall over astonished, 5km, I've just run my first ever 5km. The 5 min cool down return walk was a happy one. My wife was over the moon saying how proud she was, greyhound 1 and lurcher 2 had just been sick again or had the runs so not much praise from them but I was beaming with joy, all be it through the sweat and utter exhaustion...
This running lark is good for the soul....
