First 5k done. Not gonna lie it wasn't the easiest but (and I guess this is why the Janathon is known as the festival of activity & excuses...) having not run a "proper" outdoor run since the end of November and having only started this whole running thing 8 weeks previous I'm not sure what I've gotten myself into.
I actually feel ok, but almost as soon as I started running the left side of my right ankle started pulling, I persevered but it's disconcerting to say the least. I'm determined to continue and get to that point when I love the feeling of running.
On the upside, I didn't have a bitchfit and I didn't complain that I'm rubbish at the end... WIN!
First one down though, it can only get better :)
Oh, and on a slight tangent saw Christopher Biggins.. 2011 is already turning out to be awesome :)
1. You're right not to complain that you're rubbish - 5k done, outdoor running, janathon, half marathon planned, that's a brilliant list.
ReplyDelete2. I saw Biggins queueing for Oblivion at Alton Towers once. I think we've both peaked with our celeb spotting...
Congratulations on doing a run! I managed a walk ... and I didn't get to see Christopher Biggins! lol ... Hope today goes well for you.
