I completed two more runs over this past week each two minutes longer than my previous run. For both runs, I ran at a 8:50 pace. My lungs are getting back into the swing of things, and I'm feeling less winded during and at the end of my training runs.
I surpassed two miles during my run yesterday. I am nearly ⅔ of the way to a 5K. The way things are going, I ought to be able to attempt an organized 5K by the end of March. Hopefully so, as it'll be nice to take part in organized runs again.
I will be interested to see if I can set a new 5K PR in the first half of the year. My current 5K PR is 25:33 which I set in 2013, and I haven't ran a 5K since. Had I ran one last summer, I'm sure that I would have blown away that PR (my 10K PR pace is much faster than that 5K). It is nice that my 5K PR should be beatable as that should provide some good motivation.
