End of summer update - Going well!

I haven't updated in a while but I have been plodding along with training and have also cleared my diet up.

I stopped with the 5k plan I was doing (despite this, I would actually recommend it), I just have a problem of wanting to change things up and do things my own way!

Anyway my running is now a lot better than when I started and I feel a lot healthier. There's also a lot more routine in my life and I feel this has been an important attribute to knuckling down and cracking on with the running.

Today I finished a 5 mile run in 48:40 which I am quite pleased with. I'll keep doing quite long time runs until I'm doing 10k run in under 50 minutes, which I honestly don't think is too far away. I can't believe I've just typed that considering how bad I started! haha, maybe toward the end of September I'll hit that goal, when I do expect an update!

Once I'm happy with my 10k times, I'll look into adding running workouts to my training such as HIIT and hill / off road / terrain.

Onwards and upwards!
