And #CouchTo5k is done 🙂
I’ve only managed just under 3.4km so far, but I can now run for 30 minutes consistently. And the last two runs I completely enjoyed (I dropped my pace a little to make it more sustainable).
Now to actually do my first 5km in two days time at a local beach-front parkrun. I’m aiming to be able to complete that in 48-50 minutes.

@richardloxley@mastodon.richardloxley.com well done! Having done this I’d say be careful at parkrun. It’s easy to get carried away and run faster than you should. I managed to injure myself by getting over enthusiastic.
