First 5k since graduating in June

[Newfoundland59]

Today I ran my first 5k since graduating a few weeks ago. I usually run at 9.30 per km. and have been running 30 mins. I ran it in 9.59 mins per km. without stopping. Not very fast I know, but it felt a great achievement for me. I am so proud of myself at 62.🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️

Congratulations. Well done. I’m currently running at 9.30 too and on week 9. I’d be very happy with that time for a 5k - something to motivate me to keep going and aim further after this week.

Brilliant! Well done ….. my normal pace is 10.40 so I need to get it down if I’m to do 5k in 30 mins!!

[Newfoundland59 Graduate in reply to GrannyPigsPerfume]

I can’t see me ever doing that but I hope you manage to get there😊

[GrannyPigsPerfume Graduate in reply to Newfoundland59]

I’m sure I won’t either - and for me it’s not about speed, it’s about actually getting off my arse and doing something 😂

[00marks Graduate]
