Finally hit 5K

Last Monday. Twice since. I didn't mean to. I was hoping to increase gradually - added 5mins, (35mins), and when I got there NTC(?) said you've completed 4.699K. I thought I'll just run on a wee bit. 38 minutes.

Now I need to wise up, slow down and work on form.

The pic is from my dodgy 1K, (at the gate), road crossing.

Awesome 👏 the first 5k is very special, don’t rush and don’t expect to always do it but sounds like you have a plan

Not what you're looking for?
