Hi there,
I'm 38, from Portugal, and entered 2017 focusing on making some changes to my life.
I hated running because I always felt I lack the endurance to run. Now I look back and I see that I was missing the experience, some guidance and discipline to work out properly.
I have been reading a lot about running and I started running/walking since New Year. I have been losing some weight and right now I'm able to run/walk 5k within 40min. I haven't tried to do a 5k non-stop and I do my workout in the woods, which means mostly rough ground and different elevations.
What should I do next? Should I continue to increase my running time and distance or do I start to work on speed and a better time for a 5k?
Thank you all!
