First 5K!

[Maurs12]

For my second consolidation run, emboldened by something I read on here, I decided to ditch the C25K App snd just use Strava with a distance reminder on my run. As it happened, I inadvertently paused Strava as I was shoving my phone into my arm pocket and so I found myself running with just my music. I knew my route and where the 4.5K and 5K points were by location so I decided that Strava, which I only started using a couple of weeks ago, was not essential.

I found the gremlins suggesting I stop during the first half a bit of a drag but the second half was good and I kept going and made it to the 5K point in about 37 minutes judging by my Fitbit - very happy with that - a decent time for me and I can manage fine without all the data - no need to Strava every run.

Nothing short of amazing! So pleased for you. Doesn’t it feel great!

I did my first 5K on Wednesday and was going to run again very early this morning, but I overslept 😂. Probably good to have an extra rest day 😀
