First 12k run

Making good progess towards my new goal of half marathon in Sept. Until today I’d never run more than 10k, and I’d only done that 3 times before. And until this summer I’d never really considered myself a runner... I’m not really built that way!! 😂. I ran 10k last weekend and after a couple of shorter runs this week felt good to run 12k today. The weather was just right, but what amazed me was how good I felt in the second half. I ran a quicker 10k than a week ago, and I felt so comfortable around K9-11, I just stretched out. Really pleased with progress, easing back this week though, to go again the week after.

That's brilliant! They're really steady splits with a steadily increasing pace . That looks like a strong run to be very pleased with 😊
