This sounds awesome dude. Taking it slow is a great move - really helps to prevent injuries. Once you get to 5k, I think you'll find the hurdle to 10k is lower than the initial hurdle of 5.
Thank you, and yeah I've struggled with shinsplints on and off in the past so going slow really helped (and finding decent shoes).
