Just did my first 5k, oh yeah!
So two weeks ago I did 2.5k, that was in 18:22. Last week I did 3.5k in 25:35, with a 2.5k time of 18:15 along the way. Today I was aiming for 4k, thinking I'd steadily progress. Well I hit 4k and had plenty left in the tank, so kept going! Final 5k time was dead on 35 minutes, with a 3.5k time of 24:48 and a 2.5k time of 17:47.
Yup, shaved a full 28 seconds off last weeks 2.5k time, and 47 seconds off 3.5k. That's if my maths are right, I'm buzzing right now and may be out slightly. What's interesting is my half way time shows I actually got faster in the final 2.5k, I kept edging the speed up as I found the run wasn't actually pushing me. Can you believe that? It was amazing!
Did an upper body session after the run, but the highlight was the 5k.
