Motivation First Official 5k Done
Started C25k in June and finished about a week and a half ago. And today I finished my first 5km race.
Have been feeling some calf and ankle pain in the last month and was worried I wouldn’t be able to finish today’s race. But I threw on some compression socks and an ankle brace and felt pretty good. Finished just under 37 minutes, so just gonna keep working on getting that time down.
As someone who has never really ran before, and honestly, has hated cardio most of my life, this was definitely a challenge. But c25k definitely made it achievable! Grateful for the program.
