Weekly virtual 5K

[Instructor57]

My first run for the weekly virtual 5K

no drama run , except i forgot to start my music for the first 5 minutes and couldn't figure out what was different haha 😂

this was my 3rd 5K and turned out to be my most comfortable yet and even managed to shave over 4 minutes off my first 5k time !

Happy days 😬

Thanks Chrissie 😁

Feel I'm getting over my injury now 🤞

[Hidden in reply to Instructor57]

That’s really good to hear Ian, well done 🏃

[Birdlady64 Graduate]

Well done and congrats on the new PB!

Looks like my type of run - pub to pub! 😁🍻

[Instructor57 Graduate in reply to Birdlady64]

Haha, yes made me smile when I saw that 😂

[MontyMooDog Graduate]

That's a great run there and a very good time too. Good music, good run, what more can we want?😂🏃👍

[Instructor57 Graduate in reply to MontyMooDog]

Many thanks 😁

[Roxdog Graduate]

Great news and a good pace!

[Instructor57 Graduate in reply to Roxdog]

Thanks 😁

[Roxdog Graduate in reply to Instructor57]

Be careful with that injury if you are increasing pace though (sorry to nag!)

[Instructor57 Graduate in reply to Roxdog]

Your not nagging, I understand !

It wasn't actually a conscious increase , I was just pacing it by my breathing

[MccHa Graduate]

Well done Ian and glad to hear you recovering well slowly 👍👍👍

[Instructor57 Graduate in reply to MccHa]

Thanks 😁👍 it's getting there now !

[Hareshaw-Granny Graduate]

Great run, well done, so glad you’re back to running regularly and most importantly enjoying it.

[Instructor57 Graduate in reply to Hareshaw-Granny]

Yes, sometimes I enjoy the run, sometimes the after run 😂

[f1madman Graduate]

Nice run, might give running without music a go at some point, one less thing to faff with before a run lol.

[Instructor57 Graduate in reply to f1madman]

It took me a while to figure out what was different 😂

[SJ60]

Great run 🙌 wow 4 minutes quicker ...we’ll done 👍🌟

[Instructor57 Graduate in reply to SJ60]

Thank you , I think it's just the injury wearing off 😁

[SammiN3 Graduate]

Wow what an improvement! 4mins is a lot to shave off, well done 🎉👏

[Instructor57 Graduate in reply to SammiN3]

Thank you , it was a pleasant surprise 😬

[Gannet1 Graduate]

Only just seen this post! 😊 Wow, speedy Gonzales, 4 mins less! Well done!! 👏🏻🌟 🤸‍♂️ You sound so happy and content in your running, it’s lovely to read! 👍😊🏃‍♀️🐢

[Instructor57 Graduate in reply to Gannet1]

Thank you , I think the 4 mins is because the injury didn't bother me , but I'd be nervous to try and maintain it , think I should just concentrate on 5k now at whatever pace 😁

[Gannet1 Graduate in reply to Instructor57]

Keep on, keeping on! 😊🏃‍♀️🐢

[Instructor57 Graduate in reply to Gannet1]

How is your injury now ?

[Gannet1 Graduate in reply to Instructor57]

A bit better, thanks for asking Instructor57! 😊 It’s going to take a few weeks, so I’m not taking any short cuts. For once in my life, I’m doing what I’m told! 😄👍

[Instructor57 Graduate in reply to Gannet1]

Haha ! That's good 😁👍
