First ever 7.5k run today 🏅

I wanted to do a run today to log some k for an Ultra-X Challenge called RunAroundTheWorldWithKev. Nearly stopped at2k because my ankles felt odd but I paused, stretched them out and carried on. I was running circuits at the park and I’d usually stop after 6 or 7 but I thought of Kev and his fundraising for Prostate Cancer UK and I thought “I’ll push and do 8 circuits” which turned into 10!

I feel like I’ve achieved something today - that 7.5k is a drop in the ocean of the 24,901 miles that need to be run by the team taking part in the challenge but it’s 7.5k that someone else won’t have to run. and I’ve never run 7.5k in my entire life. 😊
