Notes
Back in December I set myself a Jantastic Target of completing a 5Km inside 33 minutes. While I had got my shorter distance times down, periodically over the period since, I had not ventured on anywhere near the 5Km distance for a full run. Shorter runs with longer walks, and treadmill reps had been my complement, so today I was determined on the last day of Jantastic to complete the task.
I knew I had to average around 6.35 to get inside the target, and set off to try and run around 6.15 pace, knowing I would slow down and have to take walk breaks. The splits in the stats show what happened, but the last 2 Km were tough mentally, trying to work out when I could take a break as I was tiring rapidly, but I ended up managing it well within the allocated time, which means I have a good indicator to build on.
