New 5k PB

Park Run yesterday and I beat my previous PB by 7 seconds!  I'm pleased with that.  I finished in an official time of 21:20.  Again at the end I was coughing and spluttering and I am sure if I work on speed then I can run even faster.

Big congratulations to Kata too who also ran a PB in 22:07 which I think beats her previous best by 17 seconds!

They had Pace Makers at the are which helped a lot.  I hope that they continue to do that.  I ran after the 21 minute guy and kept up with him until about 3.5km so that was a great.  I actually thought that he started slow but a check of my Garmin after 1km confirmed a 4:08 time so it just FELT slow - it wasn't.  My fastest section was the 3rd km which I ran in 4:06.  The last two kilometres were 4:17 and 4:19 so it's pretty clear that I tired myself out for the first 3km.  Room to improve but feeling good and smug.
