Training Run

The first time I have gone out for a run by myself. I decided to use the 'Map My Run' app to give me some feedback.  I picked a local dog walk that I have done many times and normally takes me 45-50 minutes to walk. I managed to run it in nearly half that time!  I was a little perturbed when I got to the field and found the cows blocking my path, but I walked confidently through, avoiding eye contact. One of the young bullocks did make a lurch for me but I shouted him away and proceeded without incident. The old me would have quit at that stage, but I carried out and completed my run :)  Not the fastest time and still lots of walking, but at least I was out there having a go, and it was too nice an evening to be stuck indoors. Here are my results ... it seems to be saying I ran the last km at a sub 8 minute pace - would love to believe that!
