For all of those getting up and getting out for Parkrun this morning, you’re amazing!
Good luck for Parkrun this morning! - Bridge to 10K
Good luck for Parkrun this morning!
I fully agree with you JaoJao, I wish everyone who are running at a parkrun good luck, however, I am not going to a parkrun today, I don't go every week, this morning I am putting on week 5 run 3 with Laura and having a 20 minute run with her and this afternoon I will be going for a 6 kilometer walk, are you running at a parkrun this morning?.
I’ve just got back from my parkrun, and buzzy from the parkrun high 👍 Enjoy your run with Laura and your afternoon walk x
Good for you, I know that you enjoyed your run today, I ran the 20 minute run of week 5 this morning, it seemed very short compared with the 69.23 minute 10K run that I ran on Wednesday, its a beautiful day where I live in Central Scotland, yes I am looking forward to my walk in a few hours, I am now going to read the reports from runners who ran this morning at a parkrun.
I’ve been doing a long run midweek and now parkrun doesn’t seem that long! It’s a good feeling
Guess what, that 🚶 walk this afternoon turned out to be a short 🏃run, what happened was that I set up for the walk, noticed several runners and decided there and then to run, run 1 of week 1, 8/60 second runs, 7/90 second walks, did it, felt better after that, just proves that I have the running 🐛 bug. I don't know about you but when I am out a walk and see other runners, it wants me to have at least a short run, so this morning I ran in my proper running shoes, cap and belt, run 3 of week 5, in the afternoon I ran run 1 of week 1 just in ordinary trainers, no running cap and a normal T shirt 👚. 😊 🏃 Have a nice relaxing evening.
I’m watching first half of Japan vs Ireland in the Rugby World Cup. Then I’m going to volunteer at my local parkrun. No running for me today, but I’ll be doing a 10K run tomorrow. Happy running to all fellow parkrunners.

Good luck for the 10k tomorrow Damien and hope you’re enjoying the rugby World Cup.
Sorry about the result Damien 🏉 👎
I was a marshal yesterday at parkrun. I caught the first half at home. Our local parkrun is a 3 lap course around a town park. One of the runners was listening to the match on his phone whilst running. Each time he passed he gave me an update on the score. Japan did very well.
Thanks
Doing the Cwmbran parkrun today for a bit of variety
Hope you enjoyed it x
Thanks - was a really good one
My first sub-30 minute 5k in 29:42
Congratulations to you WC8334 on getting a sub 30 minute 5k at parkrun this morning 🎊😊🏃
Congratulations WC8334, I am really delighted for you, must feel amazing xx I am hovering around 35 minutes and one day I hope the sun 30 will come xx
I did it! I did find it tough today though having not been running regularly for the past three weeks.
This was my second Parkrun and interestingly I was a bit faster than my first Parkrun 35.16 . It was still about 3 minutes slower than I was doing before my ankle problems though.
Anyway, the main thing was I didn’t walk and my ankle seems to feel fine which is encouraging.
Just off to yoga so hopefully that will help as well.
Hope you all had great runs and have a lovely weekend.
Thanks JaoJao, I ran my new local favourite today, Severn Bridge. It was blowing a hooley and the heavens opened while we were running, but it was epic! It’s so friendly, and running on the exposed bridge is exhilarating! 🏃♀️🏃♂️💨💦👍
You are so lucky cheeky chipmunks I’ve not ventured towards Wales but I’ve always wanted to cross the Severn bridge! I know there is a parkrun there and one day I hope I can try it. How many times have you done it? Xx
I’ve done the PR twice now, but my love of running on the bridge started when I did the 10k back in August. The hottest run I’ve ever done! But I still loved it and will definitely enter again next year. 😀
Let me know if you’re planning to run the PR at any time and I’ll come too! 😀😀
Where does that one start from?
The Bridge isn’t far from me
Ah I may have found you a VRB.

Couple of us thinking of giving that a try on a nice day - don’t fancy it in the rain
I hope you have had a great run at parkrun today JaoJao I always feel great after my running and now watching the women’s world road championship Xx
Kev I had a great time, we have a lovely little community at my local parkrun, everyone mucks in and have made so many friends along the way these last 3 months. I love going back for more every weekend I’ve had a nice shower and am having a very quick snooze now, and then having coffee with a friend at 2.00, then back home and on the sofa to watch the championship highlights all afternoon on BBC2. I hope there’s coverage of running! That’s what I call BLISS!
I’m so glad you did JaoJao sounds a nice a friendly parkrun enjoy your nap and coffee later on and it’s cycling on tv Xx
Are you running alongside the traffic or are you quite far from it? How wide is the footpath
If you’re asking about Severn Bridge JJ (apologies if you’re not!), we run on the footpath parallel to the M48. We’re pretty close to the traffic, but it adds to the atmosphere, and we get lots waves and honking horns which is lovely!
It’s wide enough for overtaking but we stay right otherwise. It’s fun to congratulate the gazelles as they speed back the other way! 🏃♀️🏃♂️🏃♀️🏃♂️🏃♀️
Thank you for the added details cheekychip, I can imagine it now and I bet it’s a great vibe with traffic acting as your cheering swuad, I hope I can get to it one day and I will let you know xx
