25 minutes at a reasonable pace.
But was it worth it?
Is there really a need for speed? Should I just grow old gracefully?

My foot doctor said to me that he always asks his older clients what they're looking for from their running, and he reckons they all same the same thing: "PBs"  is what they're after. He told me this because I was (apparently) the first "older" person who said something different, viz "I just want to still be running in my eighties".

Now obviously I won't be running at my current pace in thirty years time, so why worry about it now? So long as I feel I'm putting in a decent effort, I'm happy. If a PB comes along as a result, fantastic, but I won't lose sleep over it.

I'd much rather be slow and fit, than fast and injured.
Run. Just run.
