Is that an official time yet or are they still practice runs? ;-) great time either way

It seems we're all getting the bug for running! I haven't fallen in love with it, but I have to say I do feel better for doing it, and want to challenge myself to improve - though I'm under strict instructions not to become too good!

5km at 27m 36secs

Ran the last two at 0.5 incline :/

5.02km in 30.06 minutes.

How bloody annoying is that

Maybe I'll crack 30 minutes at the weekend, maybe not but I'll get there soon

Looks like progress to me though so it might be annoying to just miss out on sub 30 minutes but you're getting damn close.

Just practice ones still, got loads of other things on at weekends but hoping to try 15 miles just before I go away for just over a week (end of July), got the 3 peaks challenge the weekend after I get back and that may interrupt the running a little :s

4km in 32min today.

Are you doing splits Ray? If not you might want to consider something like the couch to 5k program.

I found splits were a great way to start and build my fitness and I didn't feel like slowing to walk was a negative because it was part of the program. I wonder if you aren't possibly overdoing the distance too, I would hate you to experience what I did and end up with an injury, it was so depressing and its been hard to get back in to my running again.

Don't be too desperate to get to 5k too soon, a build up is better
