I ran my first 5 5k's this past week

Options
I would just like to post I ran my first 5 5k's this week.( from never running one ever a week ago to running 5 total in a week) I started off this summer by walking a mile, then walking 2 miles, then running 1 mile then walking 2, then running 2 to running my first non stop 5k last monday
I hardly ever ran since I started this summer besides for middle school ages ago but now I am addicted! Good luck to anyone doing a C25k program.

Here are my times
Mon 8/8 33:21 5.12km
Wed 8/10 31.26 5.06km
Fri 8/12 30.46 5.02 km (ran my best mile too)
Sun 8/14 32.01 5.04 km
Mon 31.16 5.02km
I am entering my first 5k race in 5 weeks and cannot wait

    Terrific job! I'm about to start the C25K program. I've walked/jogged a few before but it's my goal to run one non-stop.
