Pap17 I am still here

Today was the first day in 11 that I have managed to get out and run due to the restrictions and the fact I was using my exercise slot to walk the old dogs. So not disobeying the rules just having one exercise period a day. So today I ran, got a 5k in I believe below 30 mins pretty pleased with time and pace. Better than some of my last runs. Hope every one is staying healthy and managing to get their runs in.

Congratulations, great run and time for you today, not sure if going two walks with the dog a day after running a 5K is breaking the rules, if so I broke them as well, this morning I ran a 5K and in the afternoon I took my neighbours dog out a walk.

Well done Pap, pretty good time considering you haven't run in 11 days! And also👍 for following the guidelines, must have been so tempting to just nip out for a run.
