I started running in 2018. I entered a 5k race to challenge myself to
become fitter overall.
I had not run since secondary school, so it was a amazing feeling to
have ran 5k! During lockdown, I stopped, however in 2023, I challenged
myself again to run a 10k, which I did in 1 hour, 15 mins and 39 seconds
as you can see from the photos! π·
I use a strategy called Jeffing where you run/walk for set intervals -
for example running for five minutes and then walking for one minute to
help keep my pace even β±οΈ
Running has become so important - I feel better physically and mentally when I go for a run. π§ I also get to explore new routes in my city ποΈ
