Made it to 5K again

livHad a somewhat busy day, but even if I didn't get to the gym until the evening, it's weekend so I had time for a long slow run. My goal had been to improve my time from a couple of weeks back by 20%; in fact, once I'd run for 43 minutes I was within sight of the virtual finish line so I just kept going for the last 2 minutes. Giving me my first actual 5K time since June last year (!), namely 45 minutes.
As long runs are, it was boring but not too uncomfortable. Having two songs between zombie narrative snippets felt like too long without a reward, so I was clockwatching a bit. Zombies S2 ep 3 was fun, partly cos Dr Myers is totally my favourite character, and it picked up the story of the viral material from the middle of S1 again.
I'm fairly sure I am not capable of running 5K at 7 kph yet, but I'm not quite sure how best to build up to that. I'll experiment over the next few weeks.
