That's an epic tale. I have to say you did well to do a 5km in 30 minutes if you were walking some of it. I'm struggling to get under 30 when I run. I am planning to do my first half marathon in May. I'm just working out a training plan. Really I just want to finish it, but under 2 hours would be great.
