Always find the first 5k the hardest and the second easier and the crowd really inspires you-as does the finish line

Agree with that but I’d suggest a good warm up so the first part of your first 5k isn’t used up warming up. My Parkrun times have tumbled by doing a good mile jog before hand. But yes the crowds don’t half spur you on.

Good idea that mate going to start doing that myself.
I learn't that tip early on. The first 10 minutes of a race were spent getting my legs warmed up. After a really easy 10 - 15 minutes jog I was ready to get straight into the race. Formula 1 cars start the race with warm engines, brakes and tyres. Another bonus is there is less chance of getting injured.Agree with that but I’d suggest a good warm up so the first part of your first 5k isn’t used up warming up.

Can't stand running on a treadmill anymore, hate it, right clothing on you'll be fine outdoors regardless of the weather, hat and gloves are key if it's cold but i find i usually end up taking them off anyway. Decent waterproof jacket is an essential through the winter though.
