Grinning like an ape and punching the air driving home ...... πŸ˜…

I did it. I ran a sub 35 minute parkrun! πŸ˜€πŸ˜€πŸ˜€ Garmin says 34.36 over 5.04k, so chuffed to pieces doesn’t cut it. I’m absolutely over the moon. πŸ‘πŸ’ͺ I’ve slashed 2 whole minutes off my previous PB and I was literally driving home with a ridiculous grin plastered all over my face - and I really did punch the air at the traffic lights. πŸ˜… Bonkers lone middle aged woman alert! πŸ˜€

Not ideal prep either, having gone out for a pub supper (Cajun chicken burger and fries - luscious) and 4 G&Ts ..... hey, maybe that’s my secret!

Another thing which helped was running with the same lady and dog who I ran with when I did my previous PB. Her dog likes mine and she calms him down. Mutually beneficial as his owner speeds me up! πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈ

Anyway, I’m still overly excited and whoever I speak to today is going to get very bored! Hopefully you, my VRBs, understand! ❀️

I hope you’ve all had/will have fantastic runs this weekend too. πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸ‘ŠπŸƒβ€β™‚οΈ

Very well done cheekychipmunks, that is brilliant!!! You know we don’t get bored by PBs and happy runs.

I must say your course looks very complicated compared to our out and back.

We went to Lakeside and met up with the lovely JonathanP this morning.

cheekychipmunksGraduate10β€’ in reply toDexy5

Thanks Dexy! It looks more complicated than it is really. I love it - plenty of challenges with 2 shorter hills and 1 long one, but there’s some downhill and flat too. πŸ˜€

Glad you had a good parkrun too. Nice you get to see VRBs at yours. Looking forward to 2 weeks today! I’m wondering whether to bring my dog - I’ll check to see if they’re allowed and decide nearer the time. Isn’t it exciting? πŸ˜€πŸ‘πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™‚οΈπŸ•

Dogs are allowed there cheeky but I don’t know how much room there is on the paths. Just bear in mind that there could be a thousand runners . We have half that amount in Southsea! πŸƒβ€β™‚οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™‚οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈ

cheekychipmunks profile image
cheekychipmunksGraduate10β€’ in reply toDexy5

Good point Dexy. We have about 500 runners in Bristol and we thin out fairly quickly after the start, so it’s not an issue. Hmmm, don’t know then. I’ll look on YouTube as they often have time lapse videos of the whole course for certain parkruns.

Dexy5 profile image
Dexy5Graduate10β€’ in reply tocheekychipmunks

I looked at the website and on the front page it describes doing the lower part of the course first, then the upper common. But if you click on the course map it shows you do the upper part of the common first and then the lower. Hey ho!

Whichever way it’s done, there will be runners in both directions at various stages.

You could always go on their Facebook page and ask opinions of those in the know. πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸ•

I’m still in a state of excited shock CP. It felt amazing and all my splits were in the 6’s except the long hill where it was 7 something. Unheard of for me! πŸ˜€

Couchpotato2 profile image
Couchpotato2β€’ in reply tocheekychipmunks

That is great, must be the race spirit (and all your training) paying off! I did my last one at just under 37’ but then it was entirely flat. I’m interested to see what it will be like when I do the hilly ones... πŸ₯΄

cheekychipmunks profile image
cheekychipmunksGraduate10β€’ in reply toCouchpotato2

Ironically I didn’t get a PB the other week when I ventured to a totally flat parkrun. It was 12 seconds slower than my previous hilly PB and I was very surprised by that. Maybe the downhills cancel out the uphills, although I’m sure I read somewhere they don’t. πŸ€”πŸ€”

Congratulations cheeky on running your first sub 35 minute 5K in a time of 34.36 at this mornings Parkrun. 😊 πŸƒ.

I know that wonderful feeling, last year after I graduated I wanted to run a full 5K in less than 35 minutes, I did achieve that in the same time as you 34.34. Next goal is to "try" and get a sub 30 minute 5k but first of all I'll rerun some of the C25K program starting at week 3 on the anniversary on the day last year that I began C25K. 😊 πŸƒ

I do the same talking about my 1 min speed improvement to everyone I meet and I see them rolling their eyes. That don’t seem to bother me as long as I tell them of my supposedly super achievement. 2 minutes is an amazing gain. Very well done. I think I will try 4 gins a night before my runs. Let us know how next week goes.
