3km

I ran a little 3km the other day. It felt easier than previous runs, even though it’s been a month since I last ran. I’m starting to feel a little less deathly. I think the iron pills must be working.

Today I visited Ironbridge with my niece. We walked down into the gorge from the top, then back up again. Up nearly killed me though, so I’m staying in the iron tablets for the foreseeable.

Nice that you’re back Baddie. Take it slow, there’s no hurry, and you’ll be trotting along happily again before long. Enjoy the lovely spring weather. ☀️

Well done Baddie 🏴‍☠️! I was prescribed iron a while back and the difference it made was incredible. That sounds like a nice walk you had too 😊.

Ironbridge is nice! And so we’ll done for those 3km! I’m also on my Back-on-C25k journey, and although I used to run up to 10k, now every little km and quick 3k run is a huge success. My next target is to get back to 5kms regularly. And the journey there is half the fun! Hope your iron tablets do their magic! Let’s keep on keeping on!
