Walk 5: After the 5K

The day after my first 5K in three months I was expecting to be sore/achy and all that. To my surprise and delight, I was not!

But I am still taking at least a day off before doing another 5K. A day off from running, that is, because I am still sticking to my daily 30 minute exercise minimum.

The weather was pleasantly warm, but it was also rather humid, which meant a lot of sweating and energy depletion. I didn’t run as much, but I still ran for good stretches.

My pace was 7:56/km vs. 7:43/km on the previous walk, so a bit slower, but still generally speedy.

Overall, a solid effort.
