4 weeks since graduation and I was starting to lose my drive. I only managed one run last week. So with a revised determination which came from a busy day at work I set off with the goal to run the full 5K. Without a pace goal, I just kept on running with only the distance objective in mind. Before I knew it I had completed the full 5K in 34 minutes. I’m not sure why I was finding it so difficult before, it appears it was mind over matter. 🤷🏽♀️
