Yes, Last Sunday I ran the 5km run around Herne Bay. It’s the first time I’ve run a flat course (being the area around my house is pretty hilly, heights between 14m – 114m with 1.5km of my house!) and I guess with all the other people running that combined to give me fastest ever time.
I started at the back, paced myself, and finished in 29 minutes having overtaken a fair number of people who rushed off at the start. Thanks for the pace tip Dave!
Unfortunately I haven’t been able to run at all this week as I appear to have notably hurt my leg (a particular pain on my right shin) but hopefully I’ll be back running in the next few days. Then I’ll have to go find another 5km run!
I’ve been keeping a running log by emailing myself after every run. If I get time (not likely!) then I may well write a little running log to appear somewhere on these pages. Then you can all email me and tell me to run faster!
