I’m back from illness. I won’t say I’m 100% yet. Probably only 85% but I decided to go to the gym today. I figured a light workout would be good.
I decided that I would do a bit of a walk on the treadmill. So I started to walk and I felt quite good. Then I thought, might as well do a light run, just 5 minutes so that I don’t get too out of shape on the running. And what do you know, I kept running for twenty minutes which means I completed week 05 of the couch to 5K program.
I’m rather pleased.
It also meant thatI have achieved another one of my personal running milestones. I ran for over 3km today. I think I ran for 3.4 km in my 20 mins. I also suspect that this is the longest I have run in my life. Which is a bit sad but it is also an achievement.
So I’m rather pleased now.

Sometimes the best cure for not feeling good is to get moving.

That is FANTASTIC, Andrew! You did that 20 minute run, and when you weren’t at your best too! Bloody well done

Congrats on that milestone! I truly think our bodies do like to move.

Well done! Well, all these days of resting at home must have helped, eh!

Thankee kindly one and all.
I’m very pleased with it, very pleased indeed.
It’s amazing how much progress I’ve made in just 5ish short weeks.

And as an aside - I just received my receipt of confirmation for the Western Springs 5k Run Auckland Race. ^_^

Don’t worry, you’re going at an insane speed with your progress - you won’t be chicked at all. (And you’ll be doing the Remuera one anyway, so you’ll be one race up on me!)
