Thank you Garmin!

I knew I was getting close to the magic 5k, as I recently ran 4.9k when I was just out for a fun run, with no particular targets. Today I was about to finish when I looked at Garmin and saw I'd done 4.9 so that spurred me on to keep going until I got to 5k. So chuffed :)

A month ago, I would have said 'no way' but now 6k is on the horizon!
