Another 5k completed, and with a personal best to boot! I really didn't think I would even make the time of my previous two 5ks, because I've been running less lately and when I got off the bus at Hyde Park my legs felt really heavy, but I did! :D The first half of the run was tough, as I was running against the wind, but I made it. I was at the end of the pack (like probably 3rd from last) for most of the first half, but I keep steady and at it, and soon I started passing people who had started walking. Nevermind the guy in jeans with a stroller who passed me ;) I was probably about 8 minutes from the end when I started thinking about lengthening my stride and it felt good, but then I hit a few slopes that made it a little more difficult to do so :b But once I hit the last turn for the end I pushed myself again and felt like I was really running :D
So, yay!
