5.23K Flat Run

#4 – 50 runs in 100 days – Just run edition

Fantastic evening.

I was suppose to run yesterday but when I got back to the train station it was raining so I decided I would skip the run and test my gym gear at home: elastic band and gymstick, and then run today.

It was raining where I am working, it was cold when I got back home, part of me wanted to skip the run but my stronger me decided to not listen to the other voice.

Temperature: 9oC (48.2F)

I decided I woudl run my 5K run backwards = start with the end first and end the start last and I could remember the route. Sometimes when I have tested this on other routes I can get confused because everything looks different.

Great to see that the pace was fast from the beginning and it was very nice to see 5.25 min/k on my display on my pulse watch.

Even if it looked like it was going to rain, the rain stayed away.

So glad to see a finishing time under 30 min. It is definately going in the right direction.
