Grad Run #2. A PB and a realisation......

3.11 miles (5k) in 39:23, which was a full minute quicker than Monday. I included the 5 minute walking warm up again for consistency.

I didn't enjoy it at all, except for the last 4 minutes and the feeling afterwards. But that seems enough to get me out a few days later. Weird.

Anyway, it's another stinking day, but good for breathing and rhythm (for me at least), so get our there and give it your all!!

Well done. I wondered how everyone times themselves. I always end up including my warm down walk as well which probably isn't necessary once you can run for 30 mins straight. Just on the 28 mins at the moment but maybe I will time mine different once I graduate.

Don't you just love that feeling of sheer elation at the end of a run. Must be a runners high everyone speaks about.
