NSV-5k Practice

astange83

October 20th I'm jogging/walking in a 5k. I walked the same 5k two years ago in just about 51 minutes. This year I entered as a runner because walkers now only do 2 miles and I want to beat my old time.

Anyway tonight I went to a marked path (along with my RunKeeper app) and was stoked after doing a mile in 12:52...my previous best was 14:28 this year, then I finished the 5k in 40:30, which is a 7 minute improvement plus a 10th of a mile longer than the last time I did that distance on this course!

Looks like all the work on the treadmill is paying off, hoping for a scale victory soon!!
