I’m posting to, once again, sing the praises of slow running. I’m now running at 5k in 45 minutes pace instead of 5k in 40 minutes. I’m not gasping for breath, I feel as if I could run forever and I’m enjoying it.

Another lover of niko niko running here. If I hasn't discovered it I wouldn't have made it through to Week 9, Run1 which I did this morning.
Just under 4k in 46 minutes.......once I graduate I will work on getting to 5k, but like a tortoise 🐢 not a hare 🐇 - Sppedy Gonzales is never going to be my moniker🤣
