This was my third run since I started, I hit 5km in 29min (through forest)
Also, I am not very fit, just skinny.
All I do is sit all day on my pc. So I am very surprised I could do that.

Did my second ever half marathon – the first was 10 years ago. I did it in 2hrs 37 which I know is slow but not bad for a nearly 60-year-old woman! Anyway, my aim was to do it in under 2.45 so I was happy with that.

Beat my 5k PR by 30 seconds. I’m a slow runner so it took nearly two years!
