After having quite a hard time starting up running. Multiple injuries from my weak ankles and numerous visits to a physiotherapist later. I've finally achieved my first big goal! ๐ŸŽ‰

Great job! Please don't get discouraged if you regress some. After every milestone there's a high possibility of regression, maybe you won't be able to reach 5k on your next run, or not as fast and that's okay, it's a very slow slow progress but it's progress nonetheless

Thank you! To be honest I'm already perplexed that I somehow did this. Everything just felt good today, I won't be surprised if I am a little slower next time :P
