W7R3

Although I've been slacking off a little on my running (have been suffering with depression as a result of an internship I'm not doing so well in), I gave it a go today on my usual hilly course and ran 5K in 40 minutes, but comfortably! (I think I could have cut it down by 3 minutes or so.)

Onwards and upwards! :)

Wow, that's pretty impressive!

Sorry to hear you're feeling low, are you getting some help with that? Hope things get better soon. Meanwhile, keep going with your running, brilliant effort.

Thanks very much!

Yea, I've been talking to and spending time with family and friends, which seems to have been a very effective treatment. :)

Good to hear, hopefully all those natural endorphins from your amazing run will help too. All the best! Keep in touch.
