5k running

16th February 2009 22:07 pm

On Saturday, I felt as though I had reached a fitness level that allowed me to attempt my first 5km run, so off I went! The full distance of the route I ran is ~5.5km, and with a time of 24:30 secs, I’m quite chuffed with it.

Adding to my “Cardio Tuesday’s”, i’m going to attempt the 5km run every month around the same day, and try and improve my time each month, my goal being 15 mins. All this is in an attempt to raise my fitness levels for a half/full marathon this year, not sure which one yet, will have to start looking into it VERY soon though.
