Day 47 - 5km

Managed to get out tonight after the kids meeting in the afternoon.
In fact it worked out quite well, as I switched on the Garmin 305 and by the time I had gone and picked the kids up on the bike I had reception and so could immediately head off for a run.

I thought the first mile was quite quick, so I tried to slow it down and maybe up the pace towards the last half mile.
the 3 miles were
9.30
9.07
8.44

That is my quickest last mile, and I am encouraged that I am able to up the pace when i want to, and still have some energy left!

Finished the 5km in 28 minutes 17 seconds, which I think is pretty good. A little quicker than "comfortable running" for me, but still a good workout.
