I finally did it!!

With only 4 days to go until my first 5k event, I finally cracked running continuously for 5km. Each run, recently, has been getting me closer to my target, with my run on Sunday being 4.5km but today I actually managed to push myself to do the full length:

It was slow and steady but Im really REALLY pleased with and proud of myself.

Recently I had been finding it hard to push myself to just go that little extra bit of distance but today it just kind of happened, I just ran without thinking and listened to my music.
I had been getting concerned that I hadn't yet covered 5K and thought there is no way I will be able to do it on Saturday but now I feel ready and can start looking forward to it. One more run on Thursday then rest on Friday ready for Saturday morning...OMG!!!

I guess after Saturday Ill be looking at going for the next step 10 whole kilometeres...eeek! But let's get Saturday out the way first shall we...?
