5K non-virtual race report! New PB too!

[Redcello41]

Brilliant 5 km race today with Relish Running, was so good to get out racing again after lockdown! And absolutely smashed my PB too! Got it down from 38:27 to 33:24 which I am so chuffed with! All this training is paying off then! Pacing went out the window completely though, went off far too fast but I am so glad I pushed through! Also bought myself a nice chilled beer too to celebrate afterwards! 😀

I am sure you enjoyed that chilled beer after your PB 5K run of 33.24, back again with a nice smiling photo, as you say all that training is paying off, ha ha you will soon be quicker than me, I ran a 5K on Saturday morning in a time of 33.21 only 3 seconds quicker than you, so I think before long you will get a sub 30 minute 5k, that's not a time I will ever get, well done again on your 5K PB. 😊 🏃🏾 👍

Thanks! Yeah that is my aim to try and get a sub 30 5k at some point! It got a lot closer yesterday! 😀

Well done RC! That’s a brilliant improvement, all those miles seem to be working well for you 🙂

I like Relish races, I’ve done a few and they're always well organised. And it’s so pleasing to see actual races slowly returning 😊
