The Running Man II

Broke the 2 mile (3.2 km) running barrier this morning. I managed it in 23 minutes, so that's an 11.5 minute mile - but over 2 miles. Not far off the 5k now - might persevere and get to 5k.


Again, it was easier than the last run, which was only yesterday morning, and my recovery time is decreasing by leaps and bounds, but it's still not enjoyable. It's certainly not excruciating, but I derive no joy while doing it, even though it's a major milestone for me personally.

Might take up bowls as exercise.

check out the latest result and you are running a sub 35 minute 5k
which places u in the top 200 -this event is weekly and free - aim for a small improvement each week so you obtain a PB (the holy grail for runners)
