Best run yet

Wow, that run turned out great. My scheduled three kilometers flew by compared to previous tries.



As you can see I averaged 5:17 kilometers which was the fastest kilometer I had run yet and today I averaged that! I was aiming to finish the 3k in 16 minutes but didn't really think I would be able to do as well as I did. I am really happy with myself. Like Monday's run Paula Radcliffe told me I ran my fastest mile yet. I beat it by six full seconds in a time of 8:33. I have a lot of room for improvement yet over the coming months and I am gaining more confidence every day.

So a very good run that beat my own expectations. Tomorrow is just 2.5 kilometers and I am going to aim for a 5:12 pace to finish in 13 minutes. Its doable and will help me build speed and stamina for the longer runs that are coming up soon.
