First thing-ish this morning, pouring rain, first 28min run, very slow I'm sure but just felt great.

Keep going everyone!!

Fantastic! 😄

Any run that “felt great” is the best, - speed is irrelevant! 😄

I'm going to have to face the time / distance thing when I finally get back to a parkrun. For now I'm totally ignoring speed!!

Thanks for your encouragement.

That’s great well done ! Pace doesn’t matter I did my first 5k today at 48 mins and you know what I don’t care 😂 I did it that’s what matters

When a run feels like that it's just brilliant. Well done you 🎅🎅

Speed is irrelevant it can be worked on later, that’s how I look at it anyway. I’m on week 7 and extrapolate that my 5k time will be around 40 minutes but for me the achievement will be to be able to actually run for 30 minutes and build on that 👍
