    Last week I ran my first ever under 1hr 10k(56:20 to be precise). I had run 10k before but my PB was 1:08:00.

      Wow! I’m still working my way to doing 5k at any time, and this looks huge to me. Congratulations! I can’t imagine having that kind of cardio endurance right now

        I can’t imagine having that kind of cardio endurance right now Even I was thinking the same when I started running. Now, here I am. I think you can also do it.

        I started with the target of 5k, once I reached that, my target was to run for 1 hour, then 10k and after that under 1 hr 10k. Now my target is to run a half-marathon.

          Thank you for your words of inspiration. I’m proud of my progress to date, and really happy with how running makes me feel. But I still felt like 5k must be an eternity away.

          Your words make me feel closer to 5 and even 10 k than I would have thought possible
