Run flowed today and thought I'll go a little further than planned, used the newly refurbished bridge to run one of my 5k routes.

What a difference a day makes!

Well done - 5K must feel like such an achievement!

Well done Beastie, 5.24k is a good distance, is that bridge going to lead you to 10k in the future? 👍🏃‍♂️

I imagine so, I've completed a 10K before and can see it in my future! Where are you in your journey?

I’ve reached 10 miles twice and one half Marathon, which I should have prepared much better for but managed to do. Just enjoying the running at the moment and the high it gives me, plus I’ve lost 2 stone since starting C25k, which I’ve managed to keep off 👍🏃‍♂️

Awesome, I really need to lose some serious timber, I did do a half marathon but the last few miles I hit a wall and barely made it. One thing I may consider if I lose some weight!

Nice one!

hoorah! well done Beastie. Not such a good one for me today - I did a long walk yesterday with a friend and it seemed to take it out of me for running, really out of breath by 15 minutes and my knee started to hurt, so walked home. Oh well, rest day tomorrow, then back at it hopefully.
