Technically Saturday was day one of 'getting into shape before the baby comes plan' I registered with Park Run over two weeks ago. It is a free timed weekly 5k run held at Tredeger House in Newport every Saturday morning at 9am. I have had to 'postpone' it every week since registering to work. This week I made sure I was going to do it. I needed to know where my fitness levels were at, how long it took me and how many times I stopped etc.
I must have been the only competitor there that had the least distance to travel and still took my car (parking was free) but I went straight to the gym after it for a soak an shower. I completed the 5k in 32mins and had to stop and walk once as it was to muddy and slippery to run through it. I was 7mins slower than my best 5k time in 2009 of 25mins. Still alot to work on but happy I completed it.
