Following on from my previous post… the sun came out, the rain stopped so I went out running. I went on my own as younger child was by then engrossed in whatever game app. The magical Trombone Shorty providing my musical accompaniment, a short warm up walk and off I ran.

I went out with the hope of running a sub 30 minute 5k, I was enthused and soon settled into a rhythm. For the second time what had been a lovely day when I set out turned to hail, fortunately my running top had a hood which helped protect my face, but undeterred I kept going, determined to run the whole 5k and maybe get a PB.

And I did it… I achieved a 5k PB of 29:29 and a 2 mile PB of 18:25

My first sub 30 minute 5k!

Just 54 days into my running journey…

Simply fantastic!
