First Sub 30min 5k

Our family usually run Thanksgiving 5ks every year and in 2023 my 5k was 45 minutes. Then just last year’s Thanksgiving I ran at about 32 minutes but I was gassed after crossing the finish line and my vision got a bit blurry and I could not catch my breath. Now this morning I was able to run a 5k in just under 30 minutes pretty comfortably (no blurry vision and not gasping for air).

I wanted to thank this community because looking at everyone’s posts gives me motivation to go outside and run even if it’s just a mile. I work a sedentary job and I cannot thank you all enough. I hope you know that even if we are strangers, you made an impact in my life because of the advice and feedback you provide. Keep it up. Thank you all
