Achieve A Sub 20 Minute 5K

5 Kilometres. Not a big distance, but it is where my fitness journey started. When I first stated running, i could not run 5KM without being terribly out of breathe and stopping to rest.

Sub 20 minutes appeared to be a totally unrealistic goal, but the more i trained, and the more I ran,  the more I edged towards this illusive goal!

A fantastic resource for building up to your first 5K in just 9 weeks is Couch To 5K (C25K) – Check it out and give it a go

Parkrun is a fantastic way to get into running if you are interested in giving it a go, all abilities welcome, and best of all its totally free!
