Logging my jogging

Hope you don't mind me spamming Boards with my training log. About me: I'm an unfit 31 year old male. I've tried to get into running a few times over the past few years by doing C25K.

I forgot to stop my watch at the line but it said 29:50 when I remembered so I was pretty sure I had achieved my target. Offical time was 29:17.

I didn't pace myself very well from the start, I panicked when I got held up in the crowd at the start then got carried away when I got some free space. I'm going to need a few days off running to let my legs recover, they still feel tired on Monday morning!

I gave it my all and I'm delighted with my time and got 3 new estimated PBs in Strava:
1mile 8:16
2mile 18:06
5k 29:03

Well done your first 5k and getting well under 30 min! It's great to have a benchmark
