I hope everyone is managing to fit in some quality runs over the holiday season and is staying healthy and well.

I didn't do parkrun on Christmas day, I was too busy cooking, but went this morning and it was a fabulous one (& my first sub 30...28.28) despite spending last night drinking with great friends who we don't get to see often! Apparently 181 turned out to the Christmas day run, a very dedicated bunch!

Have a great new year everyone & thank you all so much for helping me along since starting c25k in September, I can't wait to get stated in Jan with ju ju's next plan! Enjoy!!!

Congrats on your sub-30 park run uncle wiggy! πŸ€—πŸƒπŸ‘ I had a fab park run today too, despite being weighed down with multiple portions of Christmas pud! Happy new year! πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰

Thank you Mutley. Glad you had a good run today too, the pud must have given a fruity boost! Have a great end of the year! 🍾

Thanks cheeky, I just latched on to a father and daughter & held on for dear life... These kids make it look so easy! 😀

I have added a bit of distance since grad, to aid going into the new year but am still well short of 10k....looking forward to ju ju's plan after following you guys success πŸ˜‰

Good plan latching on to some speedsters. Maybe I should have done the same with my daughter who ran parkrun for the first time today and did it in 31.09! Oh to have young legs! πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈ

That's a great time for her first parkrun! I've struggled to get my son out running with me but he has finally agreed to come to a parkrun as a bribe for me to play twister last night! πŸ˜‚

Well done on your sub 30 - my target for 2019.

Thanks Dexy, I've felt it coming for a while due to how much easier my usual slower runs have been. I won't be aiming to match that pace for a while tho!

I'm sure 2019 will bring you many goals & achievements!

I am sure it will if 2018 is anything to go by, not to mention the surprises.

Enjoy doing juju’s plan in January, it’s so good that I’m going to redo it.
