Hard to believe that a couple of months ago I was doing the 'run 5 mins, walk 5 mins' thing (and feeling a bit deflated that it was harder than I thought it would be) yet today did my first 10K race - the Great Manchester Run.
Came in with a time of 52mins 53 secs which I'm really pleased with. Never been able to break the 55 mins in training.
So, anyone out there now just starting out - do stick with it. It may not feel like it now, but in a surprisingly short while you'll be making plenty of progress !
