First 5 k!

So I had a plan to be able to run 5 k by mid June, we'll I've beat that plan by a few runs and done it tonight. It had been a horrible wet day in Auckland and I had been dreading coming to the hotel and having to run inside on the dreadmill, so I was thrilled when I saw sun on the drive home and was glad for the slight improvement in the weather. I must have had other things on my mind because my intent was to run 4.7 k, but I ran too far in one direction and didn't really see the point in stopping on the way back until I hit the start point.

I'm not looking forward to finding out if my legs feel it tomorrow, but we'll see. Now to keep running 5k, and then improve my time (which I did do it at my 4 k pace!).
