June 1st 5k Maintenance Run

[Papillon17]

So after a day of working at home, as per the last eight weeks, a bit of hallway wall paper stripping, a walk of the three old dogs then a run. That was hot but I did it a slightly different route but still in the park. Another 5k a bit slower tv an the last one but done in 28.05 mins so pretty pleased.

Hi, what app is this?

[Papillon17 Graduate in reply to aaliyahpowell]

I use Strava. The free version as it does what I need.

Thanks trying to improve last couple had been quicker and majority are under 30 mins seems 5k is my distance.

Another great sub 30 minute 5K for you today Papillon17, I am not sure what your time was on your first 5K but what I have noticed is many runners ran their first 5K slower than my time of 34.21 but now can run them all sub 30 minutes, my PB is 30.55 which I achieved at a parkrun, however, I have given up on trying sub 30 minutes and am happy at my more average time of around 32/34 minute 5K time

I was covering 5k on week 9 but I do know I did a 5k in consolidation run 3 in 29.49 but most are around or just under 30 mins. I just think I am lucky that seems to be my distance. I have this linked to my Strava strafforts.com/ this keeps a record of all my runs best times etc I have 80 5k runs with the slowest 35.18 mins.
