Found this run harder this morning, just couldn’t find my rhythm, it felt better on the second run back though. Map my run said total distance (including warm up cool down walk) was 4.57k, will be interesting to see how far I go on Friday. Happy running 🏃‍♀️ 🏃‍♂️ everyone!!

There are a few apps you can download to measure your distance, Endomondo, Strava & Map my run to name a few, I tried to work out how long I was walking before I started Running, it seems over 1k (there and back) so still need to add distance to get to 5k. Plenty of time for that though.

Cheers. I will look into downloading app (aka get teenager to do it). I think I'm doing 3.5k altogether so some way off reaching 5k just yet. I walk faster than I jog. I'm not to bothered about distance at mo although would like to try my local park run at some point which i think is 5k.

There is plenty of time to increase distance, the important thing is you’re getting fitter!! Looking at the park run website they take any level and you can even walk the lot if you wanted to. I’ve registered but wanting for graduation first!

Well done for pushing through the tough parts. 👏 And you must have quite a pace! My fitbit says I did 3.6k and strava says 4k. I've no idea which is right but it's still a way behind you.

I didn't realise they were different so now I may put map my run on to see which one it agrees with 😁

Than you Mom24!! I’ve only used MMR so nothing to compare it to, it’s owned by Under Armour and noticed they’ve improved the gps tracking (it says so on the app) so hopefully accurate. I was only .25k in front of you on Mondays run so we’re not far off
