Today was the best run ever I felt fresh and energised and I broke the 5K ! I ran on after the 30 mins until I achieved it at 39 mins.So proud of this old lady 🏃‍♂️ 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️

Yay well done! Reading this has spurred me on. I turn 60 at the end of the month and just two more runs to go. 🏃🏼‍♀️

What are you measuring the 5k on?

[rosie2shoes Graduate in reply to coverhill]

Hi I hadn't seen your reply.I use Strava ,find it easy to use and accurate.

[coverhill in reply to rosie2shoes]

Agree, it is easy to use. However I used it on several routes until I got my Garmin Smartwatch. It was then I discovered that Strava was exaggerating my distance considerably. It was very demotivating! I am up to 5k now. I had my concerns about Strava when I measured my run on a map. I read, it maybe incorrect, that it is something to do with the way phones use positioning. The Garmin is very reliable.

I tested out your theory yesterday I am running between 12 and 13min miles..measured on a friends gamin this equates to approx 39 mins for 3miles .Pleased my 5k still stood .
