Stirling 5k...
...check.
Eight weeks ago I started Buncle on a C25K training, basically to get him off technology for a bit and get him moving. The boy is completely technology focused!
So we went out three times a week, most weeks, sometimes two...then we had to do four the next week to catch up! But we were out regularly and it says a lot for a 14 year old boy to agree to go out running with his Maw.
I've enjoyed the runs and the chats,.
In March when we were not long started on our training I saw there was a Stirling 5k race on the same day as the first Stirling Marathon. It was the perfect race for him and I and today was the day.
I was hoping he might do it in just under the 30 minutes, but we were 34:41. Unfortunately he caught a bit of a chesty cough last Thursday and he was struggling a bit with that.
This is not the end though, we are going to keep going and maybe a 10k in the autumn.
I'm grateful for the time shared with Buncle during this activity.
